The Capitolium is the most important Roman archaeological site in northern Italy. Built in 73 AD under Emperor Vespasian, the temple was dedicated to the worship of Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva. Beneath it lies an older Republican sanctuary with remarkably preserved frescoes. This is where the famous Winged Victory statue was discovered in 1826.
