The Theater of Dionysus is built at the foot of the Acropolis. It was dedicated to Dionysus, the god of plays and wine. The site was used as a theatre since the sixth century BC. It was the first stone theatre ever built, and supposedly birthplace of Greek tragedy.
The theatre could seat as many as 17,000 people with excellent acoustics, making it an ideal location for ancient Athens' biggest theatrical celebration, the Dionysia. The existing structure dates back to the fourth century BC but had many other later remodellings.
The remains of a restored and redesigned Roman version can still be seen at the site today.
Odeon of Herodes Atticus was built in 161 AD by the Athenian magnate Herodes Atticus in memory of his wife. It is smaller, but better-preserved than the theatre of Dionysus.
