The Colosseum had not been rebuilt. It would not make sense to rebuild it because it still standing. Attempting to reconstruct its damaged parts would be too expensive. Moreover, it would be impossible to reconstruct it as it was originally was because it is not clear how it looked like exactly.
Over the centuries following the end of Roman civilisation, the Colosseum, like many ancient Roman buildings, was quarried for building materials to build palaces, churches and other buildings. The interior was stripped of stone, the marble of the facade was burned to make quicklime, and the bronze clamps which held the stones together were ripped away. There was severe damage in the great earthquake in 1349. Theupper past of the outer south side collapsed because it was on a less stable alluvial ground. The fallen stones were used for construction elsewhere. In the Middle Ages, a small church was built inside the Colosseum and its arena was converted into a cemetery. The vaults in the arcades were converted into workshops and accommodation
There was some restoration work in the early twentieth century. It had being undergoing further repairs recently because it was becoming structurally unsound.
