Ancient agora of Athens, Archaeological site northwest of Acropolis, Athens, Greece.

The Ancient Agora stretches across a large area containing ruins of administrative buildings, temples, and commercial structures from Classical Athens.

The site functioned as the main marketplace and civic center of Athens from the 6th century BCE until its destruction by invading tribes in 267 CE.

The Stoa of Attalos houses the Ancient Agora Museum, displaying artifacts that detail daily life, commerce, and democracy in ancient Athens.

Visitors can access the site daily from 8:00 to 20:00, with combined tickets available for multiple archaeological attractions in Athens.

The Temple of Hephaestus within the Agora maintains its original roof and columns, representing Greek architectural methods from 449 BCE.
