MUHBA - TEMPLE OF AUGUST
Temple in Barcelona, with a medieval courtyard, exhibiting remains of more than 2,000 years of history
Did you know that number 10, carrer Paradís, next to the cathedral, is actually the central point of Mont Tàber, on which the temple dedicated to the cult of the emperor Augustus was erected? While renovating a medieval courtyard, the architect Domènech i Montaner discovered three 9-meter-high columns from the1st century BC. A fourth column from the Roman Barcino, displayed in the Plaça del Rei, is now back in its original location. The remains of this ancient forum bear witness to over 2,000 years of history.
