Gymnasium at Delphi, Athletic training complex in Delphi, Greece
The Gymnasium features a covered portico measuring 186 meters long with 83 columns and a central courtyard surrounded by functional training spaces.
Built around 330 BCE between the Sanctuary of Athena Pronaia and Castalia fountain, the complex underwent substantial modifications during the Roman period.
The facility prepared athletes for the Pythian Games while serving as a center for intellectual discussions and lectures during the Hellenistic period.
The training area includes a circular pool measuring 10 meters in diameter, fed by the Castalia spring through stone bathing basins.
Lord Byron's signature remains visible on restored columns from the period when the site housed the Panagia monastery during Ottoman rule.
