Meeting point
On top of the stairs of the Acropolis Museum

  • Dionysos
    The Theater of Dionysus, located on the south slopes of the Acropolis in Athens, is considered the birthplace of Greek drama. Dedicated to Dionysus, the god of wine and theater, it was originally built in the 6th century BCE and later expanded in stone during the 4th century BCE. With a capacity of up to 17,000 spectators, it hosted the dramatic works of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, and Aristophanes. Its semicircular design and excellent acoustics set the standard for ancient theaters throughout the Greek world.
  • Stoa Of Eumenes II
    The Stoa of Eumenes, built by King Eumenes II of Pergamon in the 2nd century BCE, is located on the south slope of the Acropolis, between the Theater of Dionysus and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus. This long colonnaded structure served as a sheltered walkway for spectators, offering shade and protection from the weather. It exemplifies Hellenistic architecture and reflects the close cultural ties between Athens and the Pergamene kingdom.
  • Herod Atticus Odeon
    The Odeon of Herodes Atticus is a grand stone theater located on the southwest slope of the Acropolis in Athens. It was built in 161 CE by the wealthy Roman aristocrat Herodes Atticus in memory of his wife, Regilla. The theater originally had a wooden roof and could seat around 5,000 people. It was used for music concerts and performances in Roman times and continues to host cultural events today, especially during the Athens Epidaurus Festival. Its impressive façade and excellent acoustics make it one of the best-preserved ancient theaters in Greece.
  • Tempio Di Athena Nike
    The Temple of Athena Nike stands gracefully on the southwest edge of the Acropolis, overlooking the Athenian plain and the sea beyond. Built around 427–424 BCE, it honors Athena as the goddess of victory in both war and wisdom. This small but elegant Ionic temple once held a statue of Athena without wings—so victory could never leave Athens. Its friezes depict scenes of battle and triumph, symbolizing the city’s hope and resilience during the Peloponnesian War.
  • Parthenon
    The Parthenon is the crown jewel of the Acropolis and a symbol of ancient Greek glory. Built between 447 and 432 BCE, it was dedicated to Athena Parthenos, the city’s patron goddess. This majestic Doric temple once housed a massive gold-and-ivory statue of Athena and showcased incredible sculptures by Phidias. More than just a temple, the Parthenon represents the ideals of democracy, art, and the enduring spirit of Athens.
