“He also made a round temple in travertine in the first cloister of San Pietro a Montorio, than which one cannot imagine a more elegant or better conceived temple in proportion, order, and variety, or in grace; and it would be much more beautiful if the entire building of the cloister, which is not finished, were executed as it is seen in one of his drawings."
Giorgio Vasari
The small temple of San Pietro in Montorio, also known as the Tempietto del Bramante, is a small circular building located in the centre of one of the courtyards of the convent of San Pietro in Montorio in Rome, on the Janiculum hill; it is located in Piazza di San Pietro in Montorio, 2.
It is considered one of the most significant examples of Renaissance architecture, of which it exemplifies some of the fundamental themes, such as the central plan, the revival of ancient Roman architecture and the proportional and geometric research in the relationship between the parts.
