Abstract
The article presents the results of the archaeological research of a temple – heroon from the Roman pe-
riod in Barovo (Demir Kapija, Northern Macedonia). Based on the research carried out, and the archi-
tectural elements found, we have managed to create an ideal reconstruction of the temple with the roof,
or rather, to get an impression of how the temple probably looked before its destruction. Within the
framework of the Erasmus+ AD HOC project (Accessible and Digitised Cultural Heritage for Per-
sons with Disabilities), a three-dimensional digital reconstruction, a visual restoration and a 3D mod-
el of the temple were created. This model will be used in a variety of educational activities for audienc-
es with all types of disabilities.
Key words: temple – heroon, Roman period, 3D digital reconstruction
