The Lateran palace, basilica, and baptistry in Rome, Italy, at the beginning of the 14th century / Der Lateran in Rom, Italien, zu Beginn des 14. Jahrhunderts.
What one sees on arriving at the Lateran complex of buildings today is significantly changed compared to the sight that greeted Augustine. The ancient Baptistry is still there, but the monastic buildings and compound are all gone or significantly rebuilt. The Lateran Palace, where Augustine met with Pope Gregory, was rebuilt in 1586 after the palace was destroyed in a fire nearly three centuries earlier, in 1308.
