In 1687 the Turks (then at war with Venice) used the Parthenon as a munitions store. It was hit in the fighting; the munitions exploded and the damage was severe.

on September 26 1687 AD the Venecians attacked Athens which was then a part of the Ottoman empire. A Venecian cannon ball fired from a ship or a land mortar destroyed much of the temple as the Turks used it as a gunpowder storage.
It was destroyed during a battle between Venice and Turkey in the 17th century.. The Turks hid their ammo in the Parthenon and the Venetians hit it and it blew up!!! BUT REALLY IT WASN"T DESTROYED IT JUST GOT A BIG GAP BLOWN OUT OF IT!!!!!!!!!!

The Parthenon is in Greece.
One interesting thing is that during a war with the Turks, gunpowder was stored in the Parthenon (main temple on the acropolis, a temple to Athena). A canonball hit the gunpowder, which exploded and blew the roof off of the Parthenon. Another is that there used to be a giant gold statue to Athena and her small assistant god of victory, Nike (that's where the shoe company got its name).
