Foro Romano - Curia
|
|
The Curia, meeting-place of the Roman Senate, is one of the best preserved ancient buildings in the Forum. The first such building was erected in the time of the kings, and thereafter rebuilding was frequently necessary as a result of fires and other forms of destruction in the time of Sulla, Caesar, Augustus, Diocletian, Julian and Apostate, etc. Finally in the seventh century the Curia was converted into a church and was thus preserved from further destruction.
