Smyrna Agora

Showing the days when public information was gathered by clustering around the radio.

Around 330 BC during the reign of Alexander the Great, the population moved off the cramped site now known as "Old Smyrna", to fortify this hilltop. The present walls are medieval and have mostly obliterated earlier structures, though you can still see the Roman cisterns that supplied the city's water.

Former Greek Orthodox church, now used as a cultural centre.
