Amazing place to be with great underfloor heating, wich makes it perfect also during winter events. The owners are very friendly and close to their guests. A must when in Normandie!

We celebrated our wedding (July 2023) at Château de Tilly and welcomed 220 people. We were able to enjoy the outdoor terrace for cocktails then the orangery for the evening and brunch. Our guests (and ourselves) were transported by the magic of the place for a weekend. We appreciated the responsiveness, availability and professionalism of the team: they are experienced and supported us to enable our projects (and dreams) to come true. We appreciated the quality of the service and the rooms on site as well as the delicate attention given to the bride and groom. We highly recommend Château de Tilly.

Argos Theater

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.
