The Temple of Jupiter Capitolinus

Also known as the Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus, this was the more important temple in Rome. Located on Capitoline Hill (so it would be visible from a distance), the temple was surrounded by a precinct containing numerous shrines, altars, statues and trophies.

During its life, the temple suffered three fires, before finally getting pillaged in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. As such, only the foundations and podium survived, although it is not clear which version of the building they are from.
