London Mithraeum

The Temple of Mithras, in London, was only discovered in 1954.
The temple was relocated to Queen Victoria Street, in 1962, but was a mess, with modern materials used in its reconstruction.
In 2011 the temple is dismantled ready to be rebuilt on its original site, using only original pieces.
