Unlike other ruins, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus is still in use today! Built in 161 AD, this grand Roman amphitheater was constructed by Herodes Atticus in memory of his wife. It originally had a wooden roof, making it unique among ancient theaters.

👉 Experience Today: During summer, the Athens & Epidaurus Festival brings the Odeon back to life with concerts and theatrical performances under the stars.
