Ancient Agora of Athens

The Ancient Agora of Athens is the principal ancient marketplace and civic centre northwest of the Acropolis, a bounded archaeological site containing temples, stoas, administrative buildings and public monuments. Excavations have revealed foundations, free-standing temples (notably the Temple of Hephaestus), stoas with shop-fronts such as the Stoa of Attalos, the Bouleuterion and other civic structures arrayed around an open rectangular square.

Partial ruin

As it stood in AD 150

The shape it held in its prime.

A broad, mostly open rectangular precinct of low stone foundations, scattered column drums, pedestals and carved bases set among paths, patches of grass and olives; the long two-storey colonnade of the Stoa of Attalos lines the east with a tiled roof, while the peripteral Temple of Hephaestus stands to the west with intact Doric columns and steps. Stone stairways, small shrines, the circular Tholos and sunken paving are visible, with the dense modern city rising beyond the site.
