Explore ancient Greek ruins with Doric temples, an acropolis, and the iconic Temple of Hera, all set near the scenic southwestern coast of Sicily.
Selinunte, on Sicily’s southwestern coast, was founded in the 7th century BCE and grew into one of the principal Greek cities of the western Mediterranean. Today the site extends across a wide area, with Doric temples, an acropolis, sanctuaries and traces of domestic quarters. The Temple of Hera is among the most recognisable remains. With the sea close by, Selinunte offers both archaeological breadth and a strong sense of place.
