Pantheon, Rome

Originally built in 27 BCE, by Emperor Hadrian, the Pantheon was a temple to all gods of the Roman state, but has served as a Christian church since the 7th century.

Originally built in 27 BCE, by Emperor Hadrian, the Pantheon was a temple to all gods of the Roman state, but has served as a Christian church since the 7th century. It is the only building from the Graeco-Roman world which has remained substantially intact and in continuous use throughout history to the present day, and as it is still a functioning church, silence is requested during your visit. The Pantheon is celebrated for its large dome. Inside the Pantheon, you can see traces of the former bronze ceiling, melted down during the reign of Pope Urban VIII to make weapons for the fortification of the Castel Sant' Angelo. The hole in the center of the ceiling, though, is an original feature designed for architectural reasons (the dome would collapse without it.) If it happens to be raining, you should definitely go to the Pantheon to see the rain pouring into the building through the hole in the ceiling. There are holes in the ground that drain the water. Guides will tell you the spectacular doors are original, but the original bronze doors were also melted down by Pope Urban and might have been used to create Borromini and Bernini's Baldacchino (canopy) in Saint Peter's. The dome is now the third largest masonry dome in the world. The building now appears to be built in a hole, but this was not the original appearance. The street level at the sides and rear has risen about 10 meters since the original construction due to the accumulation of debris from 2,000 years of settlement. This has necessitated the maintenance of the deep trench that keeps the building from being buried.
