The Athens Trophy Pavilion is a monument near the Acropolis in Athens, the Greek capital, known for the first time for the use of Corinthian columns on the exterior of the building. The wealthy Athenians staged a dramatic art performance called the Dance Arts Performance Congress at the Dionysus Theatre, then ejected the final winner after round after round, with the winners either bronze statues or a gilded tripod-shaped trophy. Lysikrates won the final victory, building the monument in 334 BC, using Corinthian-style columns on the outside of the cylindrical monument, and placing the tripod-shaped trophy on the top of the monument.

广场附近的纪念碑,高高矗立,非常醒目。纪念碑本身并没有新意。但是很震撼,历史悠久
这个纪念碑离大教堂不远,就在路边一个不起眼的地方。经常从这里走,但是好像没拍过照。它看起来跟风神塔挺像,但是不如风神塔漂亮,没有什么漂亮的雕塑,这也是它被忽视的原因吧。
古建筑破坏严重,消费水平不低。
纪念碑很庄严肃穆,又历史意义。
