What happened to pagan temples in christian rome?
#4
According to Augustine, even before the Christianisation of the Roman Empire, Temples and other Pagan religious places were occasionally used as secular dwellings. I would not be surprised to find that some of the minor religious buildings were given over to this use.

Matthew James Stanham
It is a joyful thing indeed to hold intimate converse with a man after one\'s own heart, chatting without reserve about things of interest or the fleeting topics of the world; but such, alas, are few and far between.

Yoshida Kenko (1283-1350), Tsurezure-Gusa (1340)
