located in the Pantheon in Rome, built in 118-126 AD, during the time of Emperor Hadrian.
The door is made up of two wings, each wing is made of solid bronze and weighs 8.5 tons, is 7.6 meters high and 2.3 meters wide.
And although the wings are extremely heavy, they are so well balanced that they open and close easily by one person.
It is also one of only two doors in the world with an almost 2000 year old lock that still works.
The feeling you get when you stand in front of this impressive and old door is indescribable and incredibly moving.
Roman culture is exceptional and unparalleled with any other culture!
There is no other country in the world that has collected as much culture, history and beauty as Italy.

Rome wasn’t and isn’t a bed of roses. Hadrian had a wall as I recall…
