The Story
The Pantheon in Rome stands as one of the most remarkable architectural achievements of the ancient world. Originally built as a temple to all the gods of Rome, this incredible structure has survived nearly two thousand years of history, maintaining its status as the largest unreinforced concrete dome ever created. Walking through the massive bronze doors, visitors are immediately struck by the scale of the interior.
