This ancient building deserves a visit when in Athens. It’s part of the Roman agora complex. We got a ticket for 30 euros that granted us access to many important archeological sites in Athens, including this one. Definitely worth it

Beautiful monument from outside. Not much going on inside. Entry to this place is via the Roman Forum of Athens. Tickets are 4 in winter and 8 in summer. Its a good deal in the winter. Good place for visiting to get a glimpse of ancient ruins and lifestyle. It will be a short visit because there isnt much up for viewing.
Really pretty place when you enter you first see the mall that it used to be there. You feel that you went back in time. Then you see the tower. You can see the design of the wind Gods each of them have a meaning of the different seasons. Really nice.
I and my family passed here on the way to Parthenon temple. The Tower of the Winds or the Horologion of Andronikos Kyrrhestes is an octagonal Pentelic marble clocktower in the Roman Agora in Athens that functioned as a horologion or \timepiece\. It is considered the world's first meteorological station. Unofficially, the monument is also called Aerides, which means Winds
Ancient weather tower adjacent to the roman market. Beautiful area.
Beautiful, ancient octagonal building, serving the weather forecast, erected by Andronicus of Cyrrhus.
You can walk around this historical places near acropolis. We didnt enter but checked it from outside.
Another great archeological site in Athens. We were going to self guide but changed our minds and hired a local guide for the day. She took us through several archaeological sites including this one. We got so much more out of it. Suggest that you do the same. Highly recommended
