Your Experience

The island of Rhodes offers a must-visit archaeological treasure: the Acropolis of Lindos, ranking as Greece's third most visited historical site. Positioned on a 116-meter cliff overlooking both the sea and nearby town, this significant location provides an engaging glimpse into history.

  • Explore on your own schedule through ruins dating back to the 4th century B.C., showcasing influences from Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman times. The Acropolis is a testament to these diverse eras with its dedication to Athena.

Navigate around this ancient site where you will encounter remarkable structures like the Doric Temple of Athena, Propylaea of the holy temple, and an impressive Hellenistic Stoa standing 285 feet tall supported by 42 columns. The Byzantine Church of Saint John stands as a reminder of its construction during the Knights of St. John era around 1317, complete with protective walls that fortified it into a maritime stronghold.

Located on the western side is the ancient Theater of Lindos—a hub for festivals, theatrical performances, sacrifices, and competitions in historical times. Consider upgrading your ticket to include an audio guide for enhanced navigation through this historic site.
