Ancient Greek equivalent of a kremlin in a Russian city (9)

I believe the answer is:

acropolis

(Other definitions for acropolis that I've seen before include "Imposing building" , "Parthenon location" , "Athenian landmark" , "classical site" , "Citadel of ancient Greece" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
