Named after the wealthy Athenian benefactor who funded its construction, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus was built in 161 CE and is located at the foot of the Acropolis.
This exquisite stone amphitheatre could hold up to 5,000 spectators and was primarily used for musical performances. The Odeon’s grandeur was further enhanced by its elaborate stage, adorned with statues and marble decorations. Despite the passage of time and partial restoration efforts, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus continues to host events and enchant visitors with its timeless allure.
