The Portico d'Ottavia is a historic monument in Rome, originally built by Emperor Augustus in honor of his sister Ottavia. It was a large portico that surrounded two temples, two libraries and a meeting hall. It was later restored by Emperor Septimius Severus after a fire. The monument was used as a fish market in the Middle Ages and as a Jewish ghetto in modern times.

Octavia the Lesser, one of Rome's first benefactors, ordered the construction of the portico. It is notable that this is the first public construction built by a woman in Rome in eight centuries.

If you want to visit the Portico of Octavia today, you can explore its partially preserved structure and immerse yourself in the history of ancient Rome. Enjoy your visit! 🏛️
