Theatre of Epidauros
Theatre of Epidaurus was an ancient religious site and settlement located on the fertile Argolid plain of the east Peloponnese in Greece. Blessed with a mild climate and natural springs, the sanctuary of Asclepius at Epidaurus was an important sacred centre in both ancient Greek and Roman times. The site was destroyed in 395 CE by the Goths and the Emperor Theodosius II definitively closed the site along with all other pagan sanctuaries in 426 CE. In the 6th century CE the site was definitively abandoned following earthquakes in 522 and 551 CE. The theatre of Epidaurus, with 2nd century CE additions resulting in 55 tiers of seats and a capacity of perhaps 12, 300 spectators, would become one of the largest ancient theatres ever built. The theatre has exemplary acoustics which allowed performers to be heard even at the very top rows of seats.
