Curia of Pompey
The Curia of Pompey was a Republican Roman meeting hall (a curia) attached to the porticus at the entrance to the Theatre of Pompey in Rome. It was an exedra with a curved rear wall and tiered seating and is historically known as the location where Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC. Only foundations and part of the back wall survive today; the site has been excavated and is accessible to visitors by constructed walkways.

As it stood in 44 BC
What Curia of Pompey looked like in its prime.
A semi‑circular Roman exedra built of pale limestone and marble revetment, with several tiers of stone bench seating arranged in a curved hemicycle around a raised central dais. The dais supports a large portrait statue on a tall plinth; the chamber opens toward a long colonnaded quadriporticus and formal garden, reached by broad stone steps. Surfaces display marble panelling and polished stone, with a low colonnaded entrance facing the garden and the theatre complex beyond.
