厄里希翁神殿(Erechtheion)，建于公元前395年，内部有一雅典娜的木雕像，在这座神殿南侧廊台的六尊女像柱(Caryatids)，是属于爱奥尼亚式的变形；现在所看到的优美女像列柱结构完美，不至让视觉上产生不自然的现像，不过这些并非真品，由于空气污染，而由复制品取代。要看真品得到卫城博物馆及伦敦的大英博物馆。
This temple was built to replace the old Temple of Athena destroyed by the Persians. It was begun in 421 BC, but most of the work was carried out in the years 409-406 BC.
The Erechtheion is unusual in plan, probably because it had to fulfil a number of functions: as well as housing the old cult image of Athena (not the Athena Parthenos), it served the cults of Erechtheus and Poseidon, and in around it were other cult places and objects relating to the earliest history of Athens.
Six Caryatids support the roof of the (false) south porch. Fragments of a frieze which ran round the outside of the building survive, mainly consisting of women of unknown identity; only an Apollo with Omphalos can be certainly recognised. The figures were made of light-coloured Pentelic marble and were fastened to a dark background of Eleusinian marble.
