Temple of Diana in Rome: photos, reviews

About

Il Tempietto di Diana a Villa Borghese, nestled within Rome's lush Villa Borghese park along Viale della Casina di Raffaello, is a stunning example of neoclassical architecture. Constructed in 1789 by Antonio Asprucci and commissioned by Marcantonio IV Borghese, this circular temple features a single colonnade that invites visitors to bask in its historical grandeur. The original statue of Diana di Gabi, once adorning the temple, now resides in the Louvre Museum in Paris. Ideal for family visits, the Tempietto di Diana boasts a serene and enchanting atmosphere perfect for creating memorable moments. Visitors might note some minor restoration suggestions, such as refurbishing the internal dome and installing a replica of the statue of Diana, to further enhance this beautifully restored relic, last tended to in 1941 by Lorenzo Cozza.

è un piccolo tempio di forma circolare in stile neoclassico situato all'interno di Villa Borghese. Venne costruito nel 1789 per volere di Marcantonio IV Borghese. Il tempio deve il suo nome alla statua in marmo a grandezza naturale di Diana, custodita in origine sul basamento di marmo ancora oggi presente nel tempio, copia dell'originale greca che rappresentava la Dea della Caccia in procinto di estrarre una freccia. oggi conservata al Museo del Louvre infatti nel 1807, infatti, a il principe Camillo II Borghese fu costretto da Napoleone a vendere alla Francia 344 opere provenienti dalla collezione Borghese, tra cui la Diana di Gabi. Fu restaurato nel 1941 ed oggi è in corso un minuzioso ed attentissimo restauro
