Parthenon

The Parthenon is the classical fifth-century BC Doric temple on the Athenian Acropolis dedicated to the goddess Athena. It served as a monumental sanctuary, a display of sculptural decoration, and for periods functioned as the city treasury and later as a church and mosque.

As it stood in 432 BC

The shape it held in its prime.

A rectangular Doric peripteral temple of white Pentelic marble raised on a three-step crepidoma, with an outer colonnade of fluted columns (eight on the short ends, seventeen on the long), a continuous entablature with metopes and a sculpted ionic frieze, and full triangular pediments at each end populated by sculpted groups; the temple sits on the rocky summit of the Acropolis, surrounded by lower ruined blocks and the steep rocky approach.
