    The discovery of the monuments of the archaeological site was revealed by the excavations of the British School of Archaeology (1910 onwards), which resumed in the early 1990s.

    From 1960-1965, excavations by Professor Chrysanthos Christou took place. There is an information booth for visitors on the site with all the necessary details about the restoration work of each monument and the surrounding area of the Acropolis.

    The most important monuments that visitors will encounter here are the following:

    • The ancient theatre: It is a work of early Roman times and was one of the largest in ancient Greece. Today, the orchestra, the vaults, and part of the hollow are preserved.
    • The sanctuary of Chalkioikou Athena: The sanctuary remains are preserved on the top of the Acropolis hill above the hollow theatre. It is the longest and most important sanctuary in the area of ​​the Acropolis and the market of ancient Sparta.
    • The Circular Building: The so-called "Circular Building" is located in the southeastern and lower part of the archaeological site of the Acropolis, and its identity still remains unknown to this day.
    • The basilica of the Acropolis: The complex dates back to early Byzantine times, and the three-aisled basilica dominates the centre with three three-sided arches to the east and a narthex to the west.
