Description
Description | This museum on the bank of the Tiber River in Rome has been designed as a renewed setting for the Ara Pacis, a sacrificial altar dating to 9 B.C. The new structure replaces the monument's previous enclosure, which was in a state of advanced decay. It consists of a long, single-story glazed loggia elevated above a shallow podium, providing a transparent barrier between the embankment of the Tiber and the existing circular perimeter of the mausoleum of Augustus. The building includes space for temporary exhibitions, a digital library of Augustan culture, and an outdoor roof terrace with a bar and café. |
