Episode The Massive Explosion that Destroyed the Parthenon
✨ Listen to Epic Greek History on all major platforms 👉 www.epicgreekhistory.com
For over two thousand years, the Parthenon survived Persian invasion, Spartan defeat, Roman conquest, and the collapse of two empires — converted, again and again, into whatever the next power needed it to be, but never once losing its essential wholeness. Then, on a single night in 1687, it didn't. Something that had outlasted a dozen civilizations came apart in seconds, and the building the whole world still recognizes today is what was left standing afterward.
Settle in, get comfortable, and drift off while we explore the famous hillside above Athens.
