History
BuilderTiberius Sempronius Gracchus
Founded169 BC

The Basilica Sempronia was a structure in the Roman Forum during the Republican period.[1] It was one of four basilicas to make up the original Roman Forum alongside the Basilica Porcia, Basilica Aemilia, and Basilica Opimia, and was the third built.[2] Although excavations have revealed remains of the basilica as well as the structures that originally stood in its place, none of them are visible from the Roman Forum.[3][4]
