Parthenon
Phidias did not create or help direct the building of the Parthenon, but he did build a statue of Athena called Athena Parthenos.
I believe it was The Parthenon.
The Parthenon temple.
Athena doesn't really have a hometown because she was born from Zeus's head, fully grown and in battle armor. However she does live on Mount Olympus, with the other Greek gods. True, but we can not forget the Parthenon that was a temple to Athena, the patron goddess of the ancient city of Athens. By the way, the Parthenon housed a gigantic statue of Athena designed by Phidias and made out of cryselephantine and gold.

The Parthenon was built as a gift, or place to worship, the Greek goddess Athena, who was the patron goddess of the greek goddess Athens. The Parthenon had a statue of Athena inside that was made of ivory and gold. It is said to be one of the finest examples of Doric architecture. The Parthenon sits on the Acropolis, which means "high-city," so the gift to Athena would sit high, like the goddess herself.
There is a statue of her in Athens. But the goddess was said, by the ancient Greeks, to live on Mount Olympus with the other gods and goddesses.

The first was the money to build and beautify it - Athenians led the anti-Persian Delian League. After peace was made with Persia, Athens continued to force these 200 Greek cities to pay the annual war funds to Athens. This money was used to beautify Athens, including the Parthenon. Perched on the Acropolis, no expense was spared on its construction, with a central place for the statue of the goddess Athena (parthenos = virgin = Athena), surrounded by columns on all four sides, with carved reliefs on the surfaces of the structure. The surfaces were faced with marble.
Phidias did not create or help direct the building of the Parthenon, but he did build a statue of Athena called Athena Parthenos.
