Temple of Apollo, Roman temple ruins in Mdina, Malta

The Temple of Apollo features a tetrastyle portico with Ionic columns raised on a podium, displaying architectural elements from Roman North Africa.

Archaeological excavations in 2002 on Villegaignon Street revealed the temple's crepidoma, the stepped portion of its foundation dating to the 2nd century AD.

The temple served as a center of worship for Apollo, the deity of sun and music, until Christianity became prevalent in the region.

Modern visitors can observe fragments of the temple's original structure integrated into various buildings and churches throughout Mdina's streets.

An inscription from 1747 identifies a private benefactor who provided financial support for the temple's construction during the Roman period.
