Where it stands was not chosen by chance, but is a legendary place in the city’s history. According to Roman legend, it is the place where the founder of Rome, Romulus, at his death was seized by an eagle and taken off into the skies with the Gods. But what was it for and what does the name mean? The name comes from two Greek words pan, “everything” and theon, “divine”. Originally, the Pantheon was a small temple dedicated to all Roman gods.

Domitian, in 80 A.D., rebuilt it after a fire; thirty years later it was hit by lightening and caught fire again.
