The Pantheon

The Pantheon was originally built as a Greek temple to the seven gods of the seven planets.  The generic term pantheon is now applied to a monument in which illustrious dead are buried. It is the best preserved of all Roman buildings, and perhaps the best preserved building of its age in the world. It has been in continuous use throughout its history. (From wiki)
