Thank you. Well worth a visit - but don't believe everything you see. All of these statues are copies. The originals are in the Acropolis Museum in Athens, apart from the 2nd from the left which is in the British Museum in London.

British Museum - Caryatid from the Erechtheion

I was wondering about that since the second statue on the right has a square arm socket.
