The Temple of Venus and Roma (Latin: Templum Veneris et Romae) is a double temple in Rome. Its surviving remains are located on the slope of the Velia towards the Colosseum. The cella facing the Roman Forum was dedicated to the Roman city goddess Roma, while the other cella was used to practice the cult of Venus, which was revived by Emperor Hadrian.
