Meraviglie - Stelle d'Europa - Season 1 Episode 2

In this second episode, the journey starts from Athens, the cradle of Western civilization, and from its Acropolis where the legendary temple of perfect proportions, the Parthenon, stands. In the ultra-modern museum of the Acropolis, Alberto Angela discovers the Caryatids, stone maidens condemned for centuries to support the weight of a loggia. The Italian stage of this episode is Florence, which during the Renaissance left a deep imprint on European culture. The journey ends in Bavaria, in the atmosphere of fairy-tale castles imagined in the 19th century by King Ludwig II.
