🏛The Parthenon, free of scaffolding for the first time in decades

The scaffolding, installed along the west side of the 5th-century BC temple for conservation work some 20 years ago, has been removed, allowing an unobstructed view of Athens’ famous landmark.

As Minister of Culture Lina Mendoni pointed out, we have not had the opportunity to see the Parthenon "free" of scaffolding for at least two generations, since these structures were erected on the west side twenty years ago. In fact, as she said, we haven’t truly seen the Parthenon completely "clear", as it is today, for at least 200 years. "It is an amazing sight, because we are used to seeing the Parthenon surrounded by scaffolding, and it is wonderful that passers-by, Greeks and visitors alike, can enjoy this view from many different corners of the city".

As the Minister added, this a view that we will not be able to enjoy for much longer than a month, because unfortunatelly scaffolding is necessary, as work will have to continue on the west side; however, as she explained, the new scaffolding that will be installed is lighter and more aesthetically compatible with the monument. More importantly, it will only remain in place until the summer of 2026, at the latest, eventually leaving the Parthenon completely "free" of scaffolding, at last.

"People who climb the Sacred Rock say that it is like seeing a completely different monument. There is great enthusiasm, which moves and pleases us very much", added Mendoni.
