Acropolis

The sacred rock of the Acropolis was for many centuries a place of worship of Athena, the city's patron goddess. In the 5th c. BC, due to the ambitious artistic program of Pericles, the site was adorned with the monumental Propylaia, the Erechtheion, and of course the Parthenon, eternal symbol of Greek and European civilization.Cults devoted to fertility and vegetation performed in open-air sanctuaries and cavernous openings in the rock developed on the North Slope. Among the site's most important monuments are the Klepsydra spring and three caves dedicated to the cults of Pan, Zeus and Apollo. A monumental cave dedicated to the nymph Aglauros dominates the East Slope. From the archaic times on, the establishment of important sanctuaries and theatrical buildings on the south side (South Slope) of the Acropolis gave great religious, cultural and spiritual significance. Among the site's most important monuments are the Asclepieion, the Sanctuary and the Theatre of Dionysus. In the 2nd century A.D., on the western edge of the area, Herodes of Atticus built the magnificent Odeon which bears his name, in memory of his wife, Regilla.
