A visit to the island of Rhodes is incomplete without experiencing its most significant archaeological site – the Acropolis of Lindos. In fact, it’s the third most famous historical site visited in Greece.
Delve right into the ancient history of this 4th-century B.C. temple at your own pace. Having undergone restoration through the Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman eras, you’ll clearly see and feel the influence of all these ages. Dedicated to the goddess Athena, the Acropolis is situated on a cliff – 116 meters high – and overlooks the picturesque sea and the nearby town. Stroll through the complex and you’ll come across the most fascinating ruins such as the Doric Temple of Athena, Propylaea of the holy temple, and the Hellenistic Stoa which stands at a height of 285 feet with 42 columns. The Byzantine Church of Saint John was built during the era of the Knights of St. John (around 1317) along with protective walls – making the site a serious maritime fortress. The ancient Theater of Lindos is located on the western side of the Acropolis where festivals, theater, sacrifices, and competitions would be held.
