Audio guide – The walls of Athens (Small Route)

In this audio guide, we primarily explore the remains of the late Roman wall of Athens, also known as the Herulian or Post-Herulian Walls, which were built in 280 AD after the city’s destruction in 267 AD by the Heruli, a barbarian people from Scandinavia.

The audio guide includes an audio and text description of each point, as well as current and historical photos of the site.
