The mausoleum was one of the first projects initiated by Augustus in the City of Rome following his victory at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC.
Key feature: oculus – the circular hole in the middle of the coffered, concrete dome – that allows a mesmerising disk of light to rotate around the inner dome (when the sun shines of course).
The balcony facing the square is infamous for the Mussolini speech towards the end of the Second World War. The building contains San Marco.
