Maison Carrée

The Maison Carrée is a Roman temple built in the early 1st century AD at the edge of the forum of Nîmes and dedicated to Gaius and Lucius Caesar, grandsons of Augustus. Raised on a podium and ringed by 30 Corinthian columns, it later served as a consular house, a church and a museum, and became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2023.
