13 reviews of Maison Carree

Many functions

The Maison Carree ('Square House') is the name given to the Roman temple in the historic centre of Nimes, where the city's forum originally was located. It's of the 1st century and, despite its small size, it's excellent preservation is remarkable. It's probably the only preserved Roman temple not wholly or partially in ruins.
