Film Production at Pergamon
Ascend to the spectacular hilltop acropolis where ancient Greek learning flourished. Home to the world's second-greatest library and steepest theatre, offering unmatched classical grandeur.
Why Pergamon with CAVEA FILM?
Pergamon offers the most dramatically positioned ancient city in Turkey, with its acropolis rising 335 meters above the Bergama plain. This UNESCO World Heritage site served as capital of the Hellenistic Attalid kingdom and rivaled Alexandria as a center of learning, making it perfect for classical dramas and intellectual historical narratives.
CAVEA FILM specializes in complex mountain acropolis filming and panoramic cinematography. Our expertise includes coordinating productions across multiple archaeological levels - from the hilltop temples to the valley's Asklepion healing center. The world's steepest ancient theatre carved into the mountainside provides unique dramatic backdrops impossible to recreate elsewhere.
The site's multi-layered history spanning Greek, Roman, and Byzantine periods offers diverse storytelling opportunities within a single location. Our local expertise ensures safe access to elevated filming positions while navigating the complex archaeological protocols required for this culturally significant UNESCO site.
