The Debod Temple, Madrid, July 2015
This is an authentic Egyptian temple dating from the 2nd century BC and dedicated to the gods Amon and Isis. Following the construction of the Aswan Dam in 1960, many monuments and archaeological sites were in danger of being destroyed. UNESCO made an appeal to countries to help save these monuments, and as thanks for the aid given by Spain, particularly in helping to save the sacred buildings of Abu Simbel, the Egyptian government donated this temple to the Spanish people in 1968.
