The Temple of Kom Ombo is an unusual double temple built during the Ptolemaic dynasty in the Egyptian town of Kom Ombo Some additions to it were later made during the Roman period.

The building is unique because its 'double' design meant that there were courts, halls, sanctuaries and rooms duplicated for two sets of gods.The southern half of the temple was dedicated to the crocodile god Sobek , god of fertility and creator of the world with Hathor and Khonsu  Meanwhile, the northern part of the temple was dedicated to the falcon god Haroeris , also known as Horus the Elder, along "with Tasenetnofret (the Good Sister, a special form of Hathor) and Panebtawy (Lord of the Two Lands)."The temple is atypical because everything is perfectly symmetrical along the main axis.
