Product Info

Explore the ruins of the religious center and Oracle of Zeus and Dione, a site which also functioned as the administrative seat of the various in time coalitions of ancient Epirotes.

With indications of habitation and worship since prehistoric times, for about twelve centuries (8th century BC- 4th century AD) men, women, and even city representatives, locals but also from neighboring or far afield areas, were regularly coming to this place seeking advice from the divine, endowed with foresight powers, couple. Dodona acquired its greatest prestige in the years of the ambitious reformer of ancient Epirus, the Hellenistic King- eagle Pyrros (319/318 - 272 BC).

Beneath the walled acropolis there are worship edifices dedicated to various deities, buildings associated with political life, the theatre, the stadium, as well as the ruins of a Christian church (5th c. AD).
