Selçuk gathers several strata of the religious landscape of Western Anatolia around Ephesus. The ancient city and its museum are next to the remains of the Artemision, the Basilica of St John and the mosque İsa Bey. On the heights, the House of Mary is a tradition of pilgrimage. These complementary places deserve a journey that distinguishes archaeology, beliefs and urban history.

Selçuk and Ephesus
Selçuk gathers several strata of the religious landscape of Western Anatolia around Ephesus. The ancient city and its museum are next to the remains of the Artemision, the Basilica of St John and the mosque İsa Bey. On the heights, the House of Mary is a tradition of pilgrimage. These complementary places deserve a journey that distinguishes archaeology, beliefs and urban history.
Ephesus, Archaeological Museum of Ephesus in Selçuk and Basilica of St John of Selçuk give the most eloquent landmarks of Selçuk and Ephesus. Together, they form a destination where heritage, urban life and the countryside meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
Vedi tutto
For a stay of 2 to 4 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: to predict the distances of the site d'Ephèse and the separate accesses to its sections; pilgrimage on the heights. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Patrimonio
Éphèse
Ephesus retains a vast ancient urban complex, famous for the library of Celsus and its theatre. Its former port role contrasts with its present location in the land, linked to the gradual increase in the coastline.
Museo
Archaeological Museum of Ephesus in Selçuk
This Selçuk museum preserves discoveries from the excavations of Ephesus. The representations of Artemis are among his emblematic pieces and allow us to understand the importance of this divinity in the religious life of the city.
Patrimonio
Basilica of Saint John of Selçuk
The ruins of this sixth-century basilica occupy the hill of Ayasuluk, near the centre of Selçuk. The building was built on the place traditionally associated with the burial of the apostle John.
Patrimonio
d’Artémis Temple
The Artemision of Ephesus was one of the wonders of the ancient world, but only limited remains remain on site. The discovery therefore requires a distinction between the historical significance of the sanctuary and what remains materially visible.
