when was the pantheon converted into a church?
the early 17th century
although the pantheon has stood from antiquity, the area in front of it had over the centuries become choked with a maze of sheds and small shops that had grown up around its columns. these medieval accretions were cleared by order of pope eugenius iv (1431–39) and the piazza was laid out and paved. it took its name from the pantheon, which had been converted in the 7th century ad into a christian church dedicated to "st. mary and the martyrs" but informally known as "santa maria rotonda". the piazza is roughly rectangular, approximately 60 meters north to south and 40 meters east to west, with a fountain and obelisk in the center and the pantheon on the south side.
