Temple of Isis Museum

Museum of the Temple of Isis and Serapis in Campo Marzio
One of Ecoluxury's main projects is to regenerate an archaeological site in the centre of Rome into a museum. 
The Camigliano Arch, the monumental entrance to the temple, is the most important in situ evidence of the whole Temple of Isis and Serapis in Campo Marzio.
Already in the Republican period (1st century BC) there is evidence of a temple dedicated to Isis on the same location, a temple that was frequented by Queen Cleopatra, Caesar's companion.
After several renovations, a series of extensions and improvements followed from the Augustan period, according to the emperors' passion for the Egyptian goddess.
It was the most important Egyptian temple in imperial Rome. From the 4th century on, the temple declined, but there is still evidence of activity up to the 11th century. Much of the monument was sacked, starting with the sculptures (up to at least 35 can be seen today in various museums) and five obelisks.
The Camigliano Arch today is the only visitable monumental part of the temple of Isis and Serapis in the centre of Rome.
