"Plan of the Temple of Solomon Jerusalem" is an architectural design conceived by the Austrian architect Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach, who was one of the most influential architects and theorists of the Baroque period. This work is part of his treatise "Entwurf einer historischen Architektur" (Outline of Historical Architecture), first published in 1721, which is considered one of the first comparative studies of architecture. In this treatise, Fischer von Erlach illustrated and described both existing and legendary structures from different cultures and times, aiming to provide a comprehensive overview of the world's architectural heritage.

The "Plan of the Temple of Solomon Jerusalem" represents Fischer von Erlach's vision of the legendary Jewish Temple as described in the biblical texts. It is an imaginative reconstruction that blends historical descriptions with the architect's own creative interpretation. The Temple of Solomon, also known as the First Temple, was according to the Bible, built by King Solomon in the 10th century BCE and was the first holy temple of the ancient Israelites in Jerusalem. It held a central place in Jewish worship until its destruction by the Babylonians in 586 BCE.

Fischer von Erlach's plan is notable for its grandeur and the synthesis of various architectural styles, reflecting the Baroque fascination with drama, scale, and the power of imagery. His depiction of the Temple of Solomon is not archaeologically accurate by modern standards; instead, it is a product of the scholarly and artistic context of his time, which often involved a mix of speculation, interpretation, and the desire to create impressive and inspiring images.

The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its influence on the architectural thought and the visualization of historical and biblical architecture in the early 18th century. Fischer von Erlach's "Plan of the Temple of Solomon Jerusalem" has been analyzed by art historians and scholars for its representation of the Temple and its impact on the European imagination of sacred and historical spaces. It remains an important example of the crossroads between architecture, theology, and historical interpretation during the Baroque period.
