Español: Un posible aspecto inferido del otrora Mausoleo de Adriano. Simulación digital a partir de la combinación de datos de las siguientes fuentes:
I) http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castillo_Sant%27Angelo Descripción. El monumento fue construido sobre una base cuadrada de unos 84–89 metros de lado, y unos 10–15 metros de alto (las fuentes divergen), recubierto con mármol "lunar" (como se llama al mármol blanco de Carrara) con un friso decorativo de cabezas de ganado (bucrani). Sobre tal base se construyó un cilindro ancho (64 metros de ancho, 20 metros de alto), con piedra volcánica rojiza (peperino) y opus caementicium (el típico hormigón romano), siendo recubierto con gruesos bloques de piedra blanca calcárea blanquecia (travertino de Tívoli) de la que aún se pueden apreciar algunos restos, y sobre un friso por el lado del río se grabaron los nombres de los emperadores enterrados en el lugar. Era habitual desde la época etrusca construir tumbas de forma cilíndrica y plantar jardines o árboles (cipreses) sobre el cilindro (como se hizo igualmente en el cercano mausoleo de Augusto, o en la tumba de Caecilia Metella, sita en la Via Appia Antica), y se supone que así sucedió también en el caso del Hadrianeum, donde se cree que además existían varias estatuas de mármol y adornos de bronce, y un templete circular con columnas sobre el cilindro, y sobre el templete una cuadriga de bronce dorado con el emperador Adriano en pose del dios solar Helios. Otros expertos creen que simplemente había un remate cónico de piedra. Al interior del mausoleo se accedía por una amplia rampa helicoidal cubierta por una bóveda de cañón que se iniciaba en donde estaban las tumbas, en un nivel hoy inferior al de la calle, y de la que sólo se conserva un tramo de 122 metros, por ser sustituido en la época medieval el resto de la rampa por una escalera (interrumpida en cierto lugar por un foso defensivo). Al final de lo que queda de la rampa, se puede observar aún los restos de un hueco para un ascensor, con raíles de madera, realizado en la época medieval. Alrededor del mausoleo había originalmente un muro con una puerta de bronce, decorado con pavos reales (dos de ellos se conservan en el Vaticano). Las ampliaciones posteriores y medievales (sobre y alrededor del monumento original, para darle más altura o extensión con fines defensivos) se hicieron fundamentalmente de ladrillo. De los cinco baluartes circulares exteriores construidos en la Edad Media, dos de ellos fueron demolidos durante la construcción de la Piazza Pia y de la Lungo Tevere.

Digital simulation from the combination of data from the following sources:
I) http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castillo_Sant% 27Angelo Description. The monument was built on a square base of about 84-89 meters wide and 10-15 meters high (sources differ), coated with marble "lunar" (as you call the white Carrara marble) with a frieze Decorative livestock (bucrani). On that basis we built a wide cylinder (64 meters wide, 20 meters high), red volcanic rock (Peperino) and caementicium opus (the typical Roman concrete) being coated with thick white boulders whitened limestone (travertine Tivoli) from which you can still see some remains, and on a frieze on the side of the river were recorded the names of emperors buried at the site. It was common from the Etruscan tombs cylindrical building and planting gardens or trees (cypress) on the cylinder (as was done also in the nearby mausoleum of Augustus, or the tomb of Caecilia Metella, located on the Via Appia Antica) and assume that it happened also in the case of Hadrianeum, where it is believed that there were also several statues of marble and bronze ornaments, and circular temple with columns on the cylinder, and the temple a chariot gilt bronze with Emperor Adriano in pose of the sun god Helios. Other experts believe that just had a shot conical stone. Inside the mausoleum is accessed by a spiral ramp wide covered by a barrel vault that began in where the graves, at a level lower than today the street, and all that remains is a stretch of 122 meters, be replaced in the medieval times the rest of the ramp by a staircase (interrupted at a certain place by a moat). At the end of what remains of the ramp, you can still see the remains of a niche for an elevator, with wooden rails, made in medieval times. Around the mausoleum was originally a wall with a bronze door, decorated with peacocks (two of them are preserved in the Vatican). Later additions and medieval (on and around the original monument, to give more height or extension for defensive purposes) were primarily made in brick. Of the five outer circular bastions built in the Middle Ages, two of them were demolished during the construction of the Piazza Pia and Lungo Tevere.
