About Temple of Mithras (London Mithraeum), London
Roman Londoners built this temple to Mithras in the mid third century CE beside the Walbrook stream, serving a mystery cult popular among soldiers and merchants. Worshippers underwent secret initiation rites in its dim, columned interior meant to evoke a cave. The temple was abandoned or repurposed by the fourth century as Christianity gained ground.
