Is Parthenon a Museum?

Is Parthenon a Museum?

If we want to be precise, no, the Parthenon is not a museum. The Parthenon is one of the greatest monuments in the world and one of the most visited sights every year.

The Parthenon is a temple dedicated to Athena, the goddess of wisdom and war. It was built around 447 BC by Pericles in Athens. The amazing thing is that all forty-six columns are still standing today!

If you want to visit the Parthenon you will be pleased to know that we offer a great tour to the Acropolis that you can see here. If you want any more information about Parthenon and Athens, email us at: info@kidslovegreece.com.
