During the reign of Emperor Augustus, the temple played an important role in the Roman forum, where people gathered for religious and civic events. As time passed and the Roman Empire declined, the temple suffered neglect and went through changes, including being turned into a Christian church during the Middle Ages.

In the 19th century, the temple’s historical significance was recognized, leading to restoration efforts aimed at preserving its remarkable architecture and history. Today, the Roman Temple of Évora is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Today, the Roman Temple of Evora is one of the most important sites in this UNESCO-listed city centre and is comprised of ornate Corinthian columns rising out of a large stone base.
