Add Temple of Mithras to your Itinerary

Temple of Mithras
A fascinating temple dedicated to the god beloved by Roman soldiers. It was the largest of such buildings to occupy the site and, like many Mithraic temples, it was situated near a military base. Founded in the 3rd century, it was eventually desecrated, probably by Christians. Nearby was the still more popular well shrine of the water-nymph Coventina.
