Telmessos
Ancient text mention that there was a huge
theater at Telmessos. İn 1993, during
excavations performend by Fethiye Museum,
seating in the theater was found under 3-4
meters of soil and debris. As a result of
studies continued until 1995, all the ruins
existing from the original theater can be seen
today. İt is understood that it was constructed
in the early Roman period, and repaired in the
th century BC and had a capacity for seating
5000 people. İt was used as an arena during the
Byzantine period. A project to repair the
Telmessos Theater, for use with a capacity of
1500 people, has been completed and concerts are
frequently held there during the summer months.
