Piano Bar Tempio di Giove In Terracina

Experience to do breathtaking panorama

A very magical and excellent place

Friendly and helpful staff, provided us with a series of very important information about the site. The place is well-kept and the captions are clear and comprehensive.

Really very beautiful, perhaps a little neglected but not by the staff, who do what they can and even more. There are evident passages of wild boars here too. Splendid panorama. It's a pity that a building cannot be visited inside, I think only on certain occasions and with a guide.

Monument of a sacredness and testimony of the past simply unique. You can be accompanied by a guide or breathe in the silence and wonder of the vestiges of this incredible artifact of the Greek era.

Interesting archaeological site for its history. Few remains except for the well-preserved temple arches. I must also say that it is a bit neglected, full of weeds. The parking lot is large. There are only two toilets and therefore, if you go in a group, the wait for the bathroom is long. They should install chemical toilets to provide more services to the tourists who visit it. The ticket price is €10, for groups €7 per person, but in my opinion it is excessive. The view from up there is excellent.

Epic. Reading about the history of this place while being there enhances the experience. Great views

The first monumental phase of the sanctuary probably dates back to a period between 329 BC and 312 BC. Linked to the oracular cult for several centuries, while the phase in opus incertum of which we observe the remains today dates back to the end of the Republican age, between the 2nd and 1st centuries BC. The titular deity of the cult practiced at the Tempio Maggiore is still a matter of debate, of which today little more than the podium remains on its famous twelve-arched terrace: in addition to the traditional identification with Iuppiter Anxur (Jupiter the boy), the city's protective deity, some scholars support the hypothesis that it is a female deity such as Venus Obsequens, based on some inscriptions found in the area. Instead, the so-called Small Temple (probably the oldest, around the middle of the 2nd century BC, with remains of paintings in the 1st style) has recently been attributed to the cult of the goddess Feronia. This area of ​​lower Lazio is rich in evidence of the era, but this site is one of those places that must be visited.

The site is unfortunately very ruined but the view…spectacular!
