Meraviglie - Stelle d'Europa

Details

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.
