Full description

In the fifth century BC Akragas was one of the richest cities of the Greek world, and it lined its southern ridge with temples. The Temple of Concordia still stands almost complete, because it was later used as a church, while the Temple of Juno and the fallen giants of the Temple of Olympian Zeus show the scale of the site.

This ticket covers entry to the archaeological park on your chosen date. Extras such as the archaeological museum or the Kolymbethra garden can be added when you enquire; what is open and when is set by the park.
