Odeon of Catania, Roman archaeological site in central Catania, Italy.
The Odeon features seventeen vaulted rooms arranged in a semicircular pattern, with marble flooring in the orchestra section and stone seating areas.
Built during the second century AD next to the Roman Theatre, the Odeon served as a venue for musical performances and poetry competitions.
The structure represents an essential component of Catania's Roman heritage, displaying architectural elements typical of ancient performance spaces in Sicily.
Located between Via Vittorio Emanuele and Via Teatro Greco, the archaeological site offers guided tours with entrance fees of 6 euros for adults.
The underground Amenano River flows beneath the complex, creating specific preservation conditions that influence the site's current state.
