Fact: You can find a full-size replica of the Parthenon in Nashville, Tennessee. Originally constructed for Tennessee’s Centennial Exposition in 1897, this impressive structure stands proudly in Centennial Park as a tribute to the iconic temple located atop the Acropolis in Athens, Greece. Today, the replica in Nashville houses an art museum featuring a stunning 42-foot statue of Athena, just as it was in ancient Greece.
