Acropolis Temple of Athena Nike

Jump to category:

The two marble fragments removed from the Parthenon, the fifth-century BC temple atop the Athens Acropolis, are respectively held by the archaeology museum in Palermo, Italy, and by Heidelberg University in Germany. The Greek authorities in 2003 offered a rare bronze helmet to the Palermo museum in exchange for a foot from a statue of an ancient Greek divinity.
