Ancient Greece - Peloponnesian War

The Palaestra serves as a dedicated training ground for young athletes, encompassing an expansive courtyard surrounded by open-air training rooms where heated matches and rigorous workouts take place. Muscular trainers oversee the sessions, teaching wrestling techniques and combat skills crucial for military readiness and athletic competitions.

An open courtyard filled with sand and lined by stone colonnades, where young men grapple under the watchful eyes of trainers, surrounded by marble statues of past champions, with olive trees gently swaying in the breeze.
