The Temple of Hephaestus is a well-preserved ancient Greek Doric temple built between 449-415 BC, located on the Agoraios Kolonos hill at the northwest side of the Agora of Athens. Visitors can see sculptural reliefs depicting the Labours of Heracles and Theseus, pediment scenes of the Birth of Athena and Return of Hephaistos, and the temple's original marble columns and interior layout housing cult images of Hephaestus and Athena.
