What happens to Helen at the end of the Trojan war?
What happens to Helen at the end of the Trojan war, and is the end of the Trojan war. Did the Greeks smash Trojan city down and manage to sail away? Am I just fantisicing after watching the British TV programme Troy?

Helen returned to Sparta and lived for a time with Menelaus, where she was encountered by Telemachus in Book 4 of The Odyssey. As depicted in that account, she and Menelaus were completely reconciled and had a harmonious married life—he holding no grudge at her having run away with a lover and she feeling no restraint in telling anecdotes of her life inside besieged Troy.

After their homecoming, Menelaus and Helen’s marriage is strained; Menelaus continually revisits the losses of the Trojan War, particularly as he and Helen have no male heir. Menelaus is fond of Megapenthes and Nicostratus, his sons by other women.

This is not a history question.

Most versions have her returning, more or less willingly, to Greece with Menelaus.
