Temple to Neptune Remains (Ancient Parentium)

Temple to Neptune Remains (Ancient Parentium) is a fascinating monument from the 1st century AD, being one of the oldest and largest Roman temples in Istria.

The remains of massive stone blocks and columns testify to the craftsmanship of the Roman builders. The temple was dedicated to Neptune, the god of the sea, which emphasizes the maritime importance of ancient Poreč.

It is located on the site of the former Roman Forum (now Marafor Square), which was the center of the city's social and political life. Its proximity to other monuments, such as the Euphrasian Basilica, allows for a fuller appreciation of the region's rich history.
