The Temple of Concordia is a Doric temple built circa 440-430 BC in the Valley of the Temples, Agrigento. Of the seven Doric temples standing there, this is the best preserved. The Temple became a Christian basilica in the 6th Century and was restored in 1785, shortly before Williams visited. Another drawing of this subject is in the Scottish National Gallery, Edinburgh.
