The Temple of Debod^[1] (Spanish: Templo de Debod) is an ancient Nubian temple currently located in Madrid, Spain. The temple was originally erected in the early 2nd century BC at 15 km (9.3 mi) south of Aswan, Egypt. The Egyptian government donated the temple to Spain in 1968 as a sign of gratitude for their participation in the International Campaign to Save the Monuments of Nubia. It was dismantled, transported, and rebuilt in the Parque de la Montaña in 1970–1972.^[2] It is one of the few works of ancient Egyptian architecture relocated outside Egypt and the only one of its kind in Spain.
