The Acropolis.
The Acropolis in Athens was burned by the Persian forces during the Second Persian invasion of Greece in 480 BC. This event occurred during the Greco-Persian Wars when King Xerxes I sought to expand his empire by conquering Greece. The destruction was part of a broader campaign against Greek city-states that resisted Persian rule. The burning of the Acropolis was a significant event symbolizing the conflict between Persia and the Greek city-states.
