Commissioned in the 5th century BC by the great leader Pericles, the Pathanon is dedicated to the Goddess Athena, patron of Athens. Built to replace the original wooden structure that was burnt to the ground by invading Persians in 480 BC. Considered to be the zenith of Classical Greek architecture the Parthenon contains not one single straight line. |
