Temple fo Antoninus and Faustina. Antoninus built the place when his wife Faustina died. After he died, teh dedication was extended to him. In the Middle Ages a church was built inside the temple. The Forum had been abandoned for a long time and was so covered with earth that the door was once level with the ground.
