Capitoline Temple, Roman temple ruins in Volubilis, Morocco.
The Capitoline Temple features substantial stone columns and walls that rise above the archaeological site of ancient Volubilis in northern Morocco.
Built in 217 CE during the reign of Emperor Macrinus, this religious edifice served as a central point for Roman administrative and ceremonial functions.
The temple contained three separate chambers dedicated to the worship of Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva, following traditional Roman religious practices.
Visitors can reach the temple ruins by following the main path through the archaeological site, with morning hours offering better lighting for photographs.
The temple foundations reveal an architectural design that incorporated both Roman and North African construction methods, reflecting the regional adaptations of imperial buildings.
