The Parthenon in Nashville is a full-scale replica of the structure in Athens, Greece. It was built for the 1897 World's Fair and inspired by Nashville's nickname, "Athens of the South." Originally built with plaster, brick and wood, it was rebuilt with concrete from 1920 to 1931. Today, the Parthenon is an art museum and the centerpiece of Centennial Park.

The Ryman Auditorium is a National United States Historic Landmark better known as the historic home of the weekly country music stage concert Grand Ole Opry. It was built in 1891 as a place of worship and to this day, audiences are seated in pews rather than conventional theater seating. After the Opry moved out in 1974, it was neglected until 1992; it was reopened as a museum and performance venue in 1994.

Location formerly known as:

• Union Gospel Tabernacle (1892-1904)
  
• Grand Ole Opry House (1943-1974)
