The ruins of Streitburg Castle are the remains of a high mediaeval aristocratic castle above the village of Streitberg, in the market borough of Wiesenttal. They lie directly opposite the ruins of Neideck Castle, the symbol of Franconian Switzerland, on the other side of the valley. The ruins are freely accessible to the public.
The ruins of the spur castle are located at a height of 403.7 m above sea level on a rocky southwest-pointing hill, the Streitberg, above the eponymous village, which is bounded to the south and west by the Wiesent river and to the west by the valley of Schauertal.
Near the ruins of Streitburg are other former castles: to the northeast is the burgstall of Kulk on the hill named Guckhüll, to the southeast is Neideck Castle and the former motte castle of Wöhr which is on a former river island of the Wiesent near the hamlet of the same name. About 250 metres southwest and above the Neideck is the site of Wartleiten Castle, in the area of the present cemetery in Niederfellendorf is a castle site of the Fellendorfs and on the Hummerstein above Gasseldorf an early mediaeval burgstall.
References:The ancient Argos Theater was built in 320 BC. and is located in Argos, Greece against Larissa Hill. Nearby from this site is Agora, Roman Odeon, and the Baths of Argos. The theater is one of the largest architectural developments in Greece and was renovated in ca 120 AD.
The Hellenistic theater at Argos is cut into the hillside of the Larisa, with 90 steps up a steep incline, forming a narrow rectilinear cavea. Among the largest theaters in Greece, it held about 20,000 spectators and is divided by two landings into three horizontal sections. Staircases further divide the cavea into four cunei, corresponding to the tribes of Argos A high wall was erected to prevent unauthorized access into the theatron and may have helped the acoustics, but it is said the sound quality is still very good today.
Around 120 CE, both theaters were renovated in the Roman style.
