Temple of Apollo Zoster, Ancient Greek temple in Vouliagmeni, Greece.

The limestone temple features a rectangular structure measuring 10.8 meters by 6 meters with marble pedestals, a priest's throne, and an offering table.

Children from Vouliagmeni orphanage discovered the temple remains in 1924, leading to formal excavations by archaeologists Kourouniotes and Pittidis between 1926 and 1927.

The temple housed statues of Apollo, Leto, and Artemis, serving as the primary sanctuary for the ancient community of Aixonides Halai.

Visitors must coordinate with Astir Palace Vouliagmeni staff for access to the archaeological site, which sits within the grounds of a private beach.

The temple structure transformed into a Christian church during the late Roman period, with modifications made to its original walls and architectural layout.
