Description

Temple of Asklepios is an ancient temple dedicated to the Greek god of medicine. Located at the foot of the Acropolis, it is a fascinating example of ancient Greek sacred architecture.

It is a place where the sick came to seek healing through ritual cleansings and dreams, in which the god would show them the way to health.

The preserved ruins allow us to imagine what the center of the cult of Asklepios looked like - a place where medicine and religion were inextricably linked.
