Roman Agora of Thessaloniki, Ancient marketplace ruins in central Thessaloniki, Greece
The Roman Agora extends over 1.7 hectares with two distinct levels connected by stone staircases, featuring columns, porticoes, and paved squares.
Construction of this forum occurred between 42 BC and 138 AD, replacing an earlier Macedonian marketplace at the intersection of main Roman streets.
The eastern section contained a 2000-seat odeon for performances and public gatherings, along with a library that served the intellectual needs of citizens.
The archaeological site opens daily except Tuesdays from 8:00 to 15:00, with admission fees of 2 euros and guided tours available at the entrance.
The cryptoporticus beneath the south portico provided shelter during bad weather while supporting the upper level of this terraced complex.
