2. The Lion of Chaeronea is an ancient marble monument located near the town of Chaeronea in Boeotia, central Greece. It was erected to commemorate the Battle of Chaeronea, which took place in 338 BC between the Macedonian army of Philip II (father of Alexander the Great) and the allied Greek city-states of Athens and Thebes. The monument is a large stone lion, about 3.5 meters tall, symbolizing courage and heroism. It was discovered in pieces in the 19th century and later reconstructed. The Lion is believed to mark the burial site of the Sacred Band of Thebes, an elite military unit of 300 soldiers who fought bravely but were all killed in the battle. Today, the Lion of Chaeronea stands as a symbol of bravery, unity, and sacrifice. It is one of the most important historical monuments of ancient Greece and a moving reminder of the cost of war.

About Athènes

Athènes dresse l'Acropole au-dessus d'une capitale moderne étendue, où ruines antiques, ruelles en pente et longues soirées en taverne se côtoient.

Le Parthénon couronne l'Acropole, flanqué de l'Érechthéion et de sa tribune des Caryatides, et le musée de l'Acropole, au pied de la colline, présente les sculptures trouvées sur le rocher. Autour, l'Agora antique, le temple de Zeus olympien, l'arc d'Hadrien et le stade panathénaïque en marbre permettent de parcourir facilement la ville classique à pied.
