Description

Archaeological Site of the Sanctuary of Asclepius at Epidaurus is a unique UNESCO-listed monument that is the oldest organized sanctuary in the world.

The famous theater with excellent acoustics, with a capacity of 14,000 spectators, still impresses today with its perfect architectural proportions and is still used for theatrical performances.

The sanctuary was a landmark site in the history of medicine, where divine healing gave way to scientific methods. The advanced hydraulic system and complex of buildings, including the Temple of Asklepios and Tholos, testify to the genius of the ancient Greeks.
