The forum in Pompeii was a large open space of a rectangular shape, surrounded by political buildings, temples, markets and porticos.
It was an urban center, the main square of the city, home to town’s main civic, commercial and religious institutions. The center of life and interest for its citizens, a bustling crowd that came here every day to meet, gossip, run business or worship.
