A well-preserved Roman temple in the city of Pula, Croatia (known in Roman times as Pietas Iulia) located on former Roman Forum near the City hall. Dedicated to the first Roman emperor, Augustus, it was probably built during the emperor's lifetime at some point between 27 BC and his death in AD 14. It was built on a podium with a tetrastyle prostyle porch of Corinthian columns and measures about 8 by 17.3 m (26 by 57 ft), and 14 m (46 ft) high. The richly decorated frieze is similar to that of a somewhat larger and more recent temple, the Maison Carrée in Nîmes, France.These two temples are considered the two best complete Roman monuments outside Italy. You can visit the cella (inner sanctuary) for the price of 10,00 HRK.

The Temple is a beautifully preserved Roman temple that dates back to the 1st century AD. Dedicated to Emperor Augustus, it showcases an elegant design with its Corinthian columns and well-proportioned façade. The temple stands in the Forum, Pula’s central square. Though relatively small, the intricate stonework and well-preserved condition make it a fascinating stop for history enthusiasts. Inside, there are displays of ancient Roman artifacts, adding more context to the visit. It’s a perfect blend of historical significance and architectural beauty.

If you’re in Pula, there’s no reason not to go. A quick trip is all you need to see this piece of history. They even have a designated selfi-spot for those in need of a new social medial display picture. There’s a fee to go inside (a very small one) and we found this place by accident so we were unprepared to go in. Overall, it’s located in a beautiful area and what we could see through the door was also beautiful. Definitely recommend taking 20 or 30 minutes to check it out.
