Temple of Caesar
The Temple of Caesar (Aedes Divi Iulii) was an Augustan-era temple in the Roman Forum dedicated to the deified Julius Caesar. Erected and formally dedicated by Octavian in 29 BC on the site of Caesar's cremation, it stood on a high podium with a frontal colonnade and a circular altar before it. Only fragments of the podium core and the altar remain visible on the Forum today.

As it stood in 29 BC
What Temple of Caesar looked like in its prime.
A high rectangular marble-clad podium rises from the Forum, reached by a broad frontal stair and flanked by low decorative balustrades; a circular marble altar sits at the foot of the steps. The deep pronaos is defined by six closely spaced, pycnostyle columns across the front with richly carved Corinthian/composite capitals, supporting an entablature with modillions and rosettes and a sculpted pediment centred on an eight-pointed star and acroterial statues. Behind the colonnade the cella shows warm yellow-clad masonry.
