Interesting facts about this location
Temple of Asclepius, Epidauros
Asclepius (Asklepios) was a much-worshiped ancient Greek god of health and well-being, and his sanctuary at Epidauros was, in extent, the rival of such major cult sites as the Sanctuary of Zeus at Olympia and Apollo at Delphi. Its major temple to the healing god, the Temple of Asclepios at Epidauros, was built in the early fourth century BCE. The temple was Doric, six columns by eleven, measuring ca. 80 meters in length. It is preserved in foundations only.

At the beginning of the Late Bronze Age, an open-air altar was used where animals were sacrificed and votives deposited in the ash. Dedications include votive bronze double axes, bronze swords, and clay animal figurines.
