What people say

"The Roman Temple of Évora was known as Diana's Temple for many years. Archeologists found remains of carcasses buried around the temple and assumed these were there to pay respect to the roman goddess of hunt. However, historians later found the the temple was actually build for an emperer as it was too small to be dedicated to a God. The reason the carcasses were there? Somehow, somewhere closer in time, the temple had been used as a slaughter's house that simply burried the animals around it. "
"The Roman Temple Is the best preserved remains of the Roman era in the entire Iberian peninsula. And it is also one of the most mysterious: in fact,even today archaeologists have not established which deity it was dedicated to. 👣How to get there: reachable on foot from Sé de Évora (220m,3min). Bus stop: Rua Menino Jesus, Blue line. Ticket cost: free"
"The Templo Romano, or Roman Temple, in Évora is an exceptionally well-preserved ancient Roman structure dating back to the 1st century AD. Also known as the Temple of Diana, it stands as a testament to Évora's rich historical legacy and is one of the most significant Roman ruins in Portugal."
