ELIS - Ancient Theatre - Antikes Theater - Teatro antico


Elis (old Greek: Eleia, new Greek: Ilia, also Ileia) is situated northwest of the Peloponnes as a Greek prefecture, but belongs to the administration region of West-Peloponnes. The ancient capital was Elis, near the small modern town Gastouni.



The ancient city Elis was supervising the Olympic Games, and it was here where athlets came for training until the competition started at Olympia. Excavations in Elis are done by the Austrian Archäeological Institute and the Arch. Society of Athens. The Ancient Theatre is known as the most striking ruin. There also is a small Museum, in there many charakters are known from the Greek mythology like Pelops and Augias.
