Tips

Diana Perez - A .

June 2, 2022

Behind the arcades, the so-called Angloises open up to the left and right, leading via viewpoints in the diagonals of the circle into the apparently unregulated, but very well composed and planned thicket of the forest.

In the southern Angloise, the path begins at the so-called Minerva Temple, which bears the name of Minerva, the goddess of wisdom, but is also a temple of transition to the other world due to its symbols of death.

The neoclassical Temple of Minerva rises at the southern end of the transverse axis and was built in 1769-73. It is dedicated to the goddess of peace and at the same time skilful leader of battles, the goddess of cleverness and wisdom, courage and beauty. The marble sculpture of Minerva, completed in 1716, stands between two sacrificial altars in the open temple.

Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, arts and sciences, can be recognized by the owl at her feet in this small temple.

The symbols of death placed here in the temple also represent the transition to the world beyond.
