Lonely Planet review for Stoa of Zeus Eleutherios
To the northeast of the Temple of Hephaestus are the foundations of the Stoa of Zeus Eleutherios, one of the places where Socrates expounded his philosophy. Further north are the foundations of the Stoa of Basileios and the Stoa Poikile (Painted Stoa), both currently inaccessible to the public. The Stoa Poikile was so-called because of its murals, which were painted by the leading artists of the day and depicted mythological and historical battles.
