how tall is the parthenon?

Answer 1

Hippy's answer is excellent pertaining to the details you inquired about. A couple of things I must add which might enhance the detailed data. The Parthenon as well as all the other Greek buildings of the period are not known for their size. The ancient Greeks had as a golden measure human ratios and proportions rather than "size". The golden rectangle, a 5 to 4 ratio has been used throughout the ages as the most nearly perfect ratio. Recent great architects, F. L. Wright, Louis Sullivan, Eero Saarinen, Le Corbusier, I.M.Pei and Calatrava were and are using the ratio in their buildings.
There are a lot more details other than measurements that make the Parthenon an architectural marvel finished around 435BC. I do not have the space here to elaborate, but it is absolutely fascinating to discover what Ichthinos and Kallicrates thought of 2500 years ago. Worth looking into.

How Tall Is The Parthenon

Answer 3

Measured at the top step, the dimensions of the base of the Parthenon are 69.5 meters by 30.9 meters (228.0 x 101.4 ft). The cella was 29.8 meters long by 19.2 meters wide (97.8 x 63.0 ft), with internal Doric colonnades in two tiers, structurally necessary to support the roof. On the exterior, the Doric columns measure 1.9 meters (6.2 ft) in diameter and are 10.4 meters (34.1 ft) high. The corner columns are slightly larger in diameter. The stylobate has an upward curvature towards its center of 60 millimeters (2.36 in) on the east and west ends, and of 110 millimeters (4.33 in) on the sides. Some of the dimensions form the golden rectangle expressing the golden ratio, praised by Pythagoras in the previous century.
