Summary

[edit]
Description Built in the 100s AD, during the Roman period, as a temple dedicated to Roman Emperor Hadrian, this Classical Roman temple stood along Curetes Street, and was reconstructed in the 300s AD. The monument fell into ruins after the city was abandoned during the Byzantine period, when the city’s harbor silted up, and it faced an exodus of population and economic activity. The temple, which is more of a monument, features a well-preserved facade and portico, which were reconstructed by archaeologists in the 20th Century. The temple is one of the best-preserved ancient monuments in the ancient city of Ephesus. The ruins of the ancient city of Ephesus were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015.
