The Acropolis is a prominent archaeological site in Athens, Greece, known for its ancient monuments and temples, most notably the Parthenon. It served as a religious and political center in ancient Athens, dedicated primarily to the goddess Athena.

Today, the Acropolis is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a symbol of classical civilization and democracy.
