Temple D, Ancient Greek temple in Selinunte Archaeological Park, Italy.
Temple D features a peripteral structure with six columns on the front, thirteen on the sides, and stands on a three-stepped base platform.
Built during the 6th century BCE, Temple D marked the period when Selinunte reached its peak as a Greek colony in Sicily.
The temple displays classical Doric architecture with Sicilian modifications, including specific column proportions and spatial arrangements typical of western Greek colonies.
The temple remains are accessible daily within the Selinunte Archaeological Park, with guided tours available in multiple languages.
Temple D retains its original altar position, aligned with astronomical calculations that determined sacred orientations in ancient Greek architecture.
