The Pantheon is a former Roman temple and, since AD 609, a Catholic church in Rome, Italy. It was built on the site of an earlier temple commissioned by Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa during the reign of Augustus (27 BC-AD 14); then, after the original burnt down, the present building was ordered by the emperor Hadrian and probably dedicated c—AD 126.

Designed by renowned architects such as Michelangelo and Bernini, it is a masterpiece of Renaissance and Baroque architecture. The basilica is home to the famous dome, created by Michelangelo, and holds significant religious and historical importance as the burial site of St. Peter, one of Jesus' apostles.
