The altar of peace is one of the most important monuments of ancient Rome. It was built in 13 B.C. to commemorate Augustus victories over Spain and Gaul.

 

Location and History

Originally it was erected in proximity of today's Via del Corso. In 1938, during the bimillenary Augustus celebrations, the altar was rebuilt by G. Moretti in Piazza Augusto. The original fragments were integrated with copies of them.

 
 

Description

It is a square enclosure with an altar in its middle. All the surfaces are decorated with marble friezes and relieves of Greek artists.
