Erected as the central structure of the Centennial Exposition, 1897, this is the only full-scale reproduction of the fifth century B.C. Athenian temple and is exact in almost every detail to the original. The idea of reproducing this magnificant building was conceived by Major E. C. Lewis, Director General of the Exposition. The building served as the gallery of fine arts during the commemoration.
