The Leonidaion was a guesthouse which served as a lodging place for athletes taking part in the Olympic Games in the Sanctuary of Olympia, Greece. It was named after its architect, Leonidas of Naxos.
During the Peloponnesian War the building was visited by the Spartan misthios Kassandra.[1]
Trivia
- In Odyssey, the building is anachronistic, as it was not erected until 330 BCE.
