GYTHIO (Town) LACONIA
In the Northern part of Gythio, near the entrance of the city there
is the theatre, which is the most important edifice of the Roman Age. (It was
renovated during those times). The auditorium , which is divided in four parts
is well preserved. You can also see the foundations of the first stage wall dated
back to the early AD years.
South -east of the theatre there was an ancient agora. Above the theatre,
on the top of the 50m hill the Acropolis was situated. Today the remains of its
walls are distinguishable. Here there were the temple of Athena and the Gates
of Castorides as well as an aqueduct the ruins of which are still preserved.
