What it's like

The Museum of the Ancient Agora of Thessaloniki is a separate museum site listed by the directorate. It is also listed as a museum in the city and in Central Macedonia.

A visit here pairs with the nearby Roman Forum, where excavations and a museum sit underneath the site. The forum complex includes two Roman baths and a small theater that also hosted gladiatorial games.
