Built in the 1st century ad, the Temple of Diana is considered a great symbol of Évora. It is one of the best preserved Roman monuments both in Portugal and the Iberian Peninsula. According to 17th century beliefs it is dedicated to imperial worship.

Made up of 14 Corinthian columns in Estremoz marble, its arguably good state of conservation is related to all the time it was covered when, during the Middle Ages, they made a fortress of it. But also because, until the 19th century, when they refurbished it, it wasn’t open-aired.
