The Elgin Marbles, which are a collection of classical Greek marble sculptures that adorned the Parthenon and other buildings on the Acropolis of Athens, are housed in the British Museum in London. They were acquired in the early 19th century by Lord Elgin, the British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire. The sculptures have been a subject of controversy and debate regarding their ownership and repatriation to Greece.
