About Agrigento
Agrigento is a hilltop city on Sicily's south coast, best known for the Valley of the Temples, a ridge of Greek temples standing above the sea.
Agrigento looks out to the Mediterranean from a hill on Sicily's southern coast. Greek colonists founded it around 580 BC as Akragas, and the poet Pindar called it the fairest city of mortals. The Valley of the Temples, a World Heritage site just below the modern town, is a ridge of Doric temples from the fifth century BC; the best preserved is the Temple of Concordia, saved because it was later turned into a church.
Top-ranked sights in Agrigento: Valley of the Temples (Valle dei Templi), House Museum of Soap (Casa Museo del Sapone), Kolymbetra Garden (Giardino della Kolymbethra).
