Chiesa di S. Maria ad Martires P.za della Rotonda. Entrance: free. It was started in th 24th century by Agrippa, son in law of Augusto, and its current aspect dates back to Emperor Adrian.

The dome is covered by a magnificent rotunda, perfectly hemispherical with cassettes, and ends with a circular opening. The Pantheon with its simple and concrete architectural skills is considered one of the most relevant masterpieces of roman architecture.
