Arch of Cavaillon, Roman arch in Place du Clos, Cavaillon, France.
The triumphal arch features four stone pillars supporting two semicircular arches, with bas-reliefs depicting plant patterns, small animals, and figures of Victory.
Built during the first century AD, the arch originally stood near the cathedral and marked the entrance to the Roman forum of ancient Cabellio.
The preservation of Christian epitaphs on the pillars demonstrates the integration of Roman architecture with subsequent religious developments in Provence.
The monument remains accessible every day without entrance fees, with multiple parking options available in the surrounding area.
Unlike standard Roman triumphal arches that display battle scenes, this structure contains no military imagery on its decorated surfaces.
