4. Tempio di Giove Capitolino

   The Temple of Jupiter dominates the north side of the Forum, with Mount Vesuvius scenically rising behind. When the colony was founded (80 BC), the temple underwent a radical renovation and became a real Capitolium with the three cult statues of Jupiter, Juno and Minerva, which looked like those of the Capitolium in Rome, placed on a high base so as to make them visible to whoever passed in the Forum square.

The men's section presents an apodyterium (dressing room), used also as a tepidarium (for medium temperature baths), frigidarium (for cold baths) and calidarium (for hot baths).

    The Lupanar is the most famous official brothel of Pompeii, located in a narrow side street near the heart of the city. This small, two-story stone building is unique for its purpose-built design, featuring five small rooms on the ground floor with built-in masonry beds. It is world-renowned for its well-preserved erotic frescoes displayed above the doors, which likely served as a visual "menu" of services, and for the hundreds of graffiti left by visitors, providing a raw and fascinating look into the social life and language of ancient Roman plebeians.
