Project Description
Ara Pacis
The altar is kept in the Museum of the Ara Pacis, inside a triumphant looking theca, which has clear references to the Roman imperial style and was designed by the American architect Richard Meier.
There are also areas dedicated to exhibitions and events inside the museum.
Augustus’s Mausoleum is very close to the Ara Pacis. It is an overpowering funeral monument which belongs to the Ist century b.C. and it is currently being restored.
