Experience a piece of ancient Greek history at Nashville's exact replica of The Parthenon, completed in 1997 as part of the city's centennial project. Highlights of this art gallery and architectual wonder include the statue of Athena, which stands nearly 42 feet tall and weighs about 12 tons. Both this statue and the building itself are exact replicas of the Greek architectual wonder that sat majestically upon the Acropolis of Athens centuries ago.
Nashville's replica serves as the city's art museum, with a gallery featuring 63 paintings by 19th and 20th century American artists. Other galleries at the Parthenon host traveling and temporary exhibits. Be sure to take some time on your Nashville getaway to visit the incredible wonder of the towering Parthenon.
