The Tavole Palatine, near Bernalda in southern Italy, are the remains of a hexastyle peripteral temple dating to the 6th century BC, built during the Greek colonial period of Magna Graecia and dedicated to Hera and Apollo. Situated close to the Bradano river, the temple formed part of a countryside sanctuary; visible today are the temple's structural remains alongside fragments of the temenos wall and an ancient altar. Now designated as an Italian national heritage site, the archaeological complex functions as a museum and park dedicated to this significant example of ancient Greek architecture.
