Virtual Ancient Rome in 3D: 5 Ancient Buildings In Rome Incredibly Intact - Now And Then

In Rome, there are buildings that have come down to us almost intact even after 2000 years from the time of their construction! They have retained their former greatness and invariably impress every new generation of people. These buildings remember Caesar, Augustus, Marcus Aurelius.
We invite you to get acquainted with the five most famous of them, and see in comparison how they look now, and what they were then, in ancient times. Our 3D reconstruction will help us it it. We will see the temples of Romulus, Portunus, Antoninus and Faustina, the Curia Julia, and, of course, the famous Pantheon!
And our main goal is to create the most extensive, detailed and accurate virtual 3D reconstruction of Ancient Rome, and eventually release it to everyone using the game engine! Join and follow us!

Mary at the martyrs) : the Pantheon is still in use as temple (but Christian), its door from August era is still working (I helped people worked inside in the past to close it sometimes ).

    Part of the Palatine Palace actually was turned into a church, the Chapel of St. Caesareus during the 6th Century, although we don't know exactly what part of the palace it was located in. The rest of the Flavian/Severan palace was well maintained throughout the 5th-8th Centuries and was still the seat of various administrators. When the Eastern Emperors (rarely) visited Rome, it was at the Palatine they would reside. What really doomed the Palatine was a series of earthquakes in the early 9th Century that destroyed much of it. The small and impoverished population of Rome did not have the funds, manpower or logistics to repair the damage, so they were left that way and gradually fell apart of were scavenged for building materials.

    I find it disgusting that the Catholic church was determined to turn all these wonderful Roman monuments into churches----attempting to remove historical significance and Rome's many deities. The church stripped the Colosseum for building materials, leaving only ruins in some parts. So much of Roman antiquities have found their way into the Vatican archives, never to be seen by anyone again. I'm surprised that the church didn't raze the ancient buildings completely----a way of eradicating both Roman culture and religions. Shame on the church!! The Catholic church over the centuries has done far more harm than good in Rome.
