A horseshoe stadium rebuilt entirely in Pentelic marble in the 1890s on the site of the 4th-century BC Panathenaic stadium, which is why it is nicknamed Kallimarmaro. It hosted the first modern Olympic Games in 1896 and is now the finish of the Athens Marathon and the handover point for the Olympic flame.
