One of the greatest ancient odeons. It was built on the orders of Herod Attica in 161 AD on the slopes of the Acropolis. The stage was placed in the lower part, above which semicircular rows of stone seats rise. 5-6 thousand people could watch performances here. Behind the stage there is a building for artists.
