The Siege of the Acropolis and the Destruction of the Parthenon
TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: The Siege of the Acropolis and the Destruction of the Parthenon
On Friday 26 September 1687—338 years ago today —the Parthenon, which had managed to remain nearly intact through more than two millennia, was mostly destroyed in an engagement between the Ottoman Empire and the Republic of Venice. The Parthenon had suffered from neglect and damage over more than two thousand years, but 2,119 years after its completion it was largely destroyed by the explosion of a Turkish ammunition store kept in the Parthenon, which was ignited by a Venetian mortar round thrown by a lieutenant from Luneburg.
