Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Propylaia (Greek: Προπύλαια; lit. 'Gates') is the classical Greek Doric building complex that functioned as the monumental ceremonial gateway to the Acropolis of Athens. Built between 437 and 432 BC as a part of the Periklean Building Program, it was the last in a series of gatehouses built on the citadel. Its architect was Mnesikles, his only known building. It is evident from traces left on the extant building that the plan for the Propylaia evolved considerably during its construction, and that the project was ultimately abandoned in an unfinished state.

Summary from Ελληνικά / Modern Greek Wikipedia (elwiki)

Τα Προπύλαια είναι η πολυτελής πύλη της Ακρόπολης. Ετυμολογικά η λέξη αποτελεί τη συνένωση του προθέματος προ- με τη λέξη πύλη, που σημαίνει απλά πως το κτίριο αποτελούσε την κεντρική πύλη της Ακρόπολης.

Summary from Svenska / Swedish Wikipedia (svwiki)

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

Les Propylées (en grec moderne : Προπύλαια) sont un monument constituant l'entrée principale de l'acropole d'Athènes. Les Propylées, comme les autres monuments d'Athènes, ont eu une histoire agitée. Ils ont été successivement palais épiscopal, résidence des ducs francs d’Athènes, palais florentin et dépôt d’armes turc.

Summary from Nederlands / Dutch Wikipedia (nlwiki)

Met propyleeën (Grieks: Προπύλαια, propylaia, van pro = voor en pylè = poort) wordt bedoeld de monumentale ingang van een heiligdom of ander belangrijk gebouw of gebouwencomplex. Het is een term uit de klassieke oudheid. De Grieken gebruikten de term propylon in het enkelvoud voor een poort aan de ingang van een heiligdom of paleis terwijl het meervoud, propylaeen, gebruikt werd voor een monumentale ingang met verschillende deuren als die van de Akropolis, Eleusis en Epidauros.

Summary from Suomi / Finnish Wikipedia (fiwiki)

Propylaia (m.kreik. Προπύλαια) on Ateenan Akropoliin porttirakennus. Siitä on tullut monumentaalista porttikäytävää tarkoittava yleisempi termi propylaia tai propylaion.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Die Propyläen (altgriechisch Προπύλαια Propýlaia, Plural von προπύλαιον propylaion, deutsch ‚Vorhof, Vorhalle‘) bilden den monumentalen und repräsentativen Torbau zum heiligen Bezirk der Athener Akropolis. Sie wurden zwischen 437 und 432 v. Chr. errichtet. Spätestens mit Beginn des Peloponnesischen Krieges wurden die Arbeiten an dem noch unfertigen Bau eingestellt und nicht wieder aufgenommen. Entwerfender Architekt war der bis dahin unbekannte Mnesikles. Der Bau war Bestandteil des perikleischen Bauprogramms auf der Akropolis und wurde in Angriff genommen, als die Arbeiten am Parthenon zu Ende gebracht waren. Die Propyläen erhoben sich am Scheitelpunkt der westlichen Zugangsrampe, über die man gewöhnlich die Akropolis bestieg.

Summary from Italiano / Italian Wikipedia (itwiki)
