Arch of Glanum, Roman triumphal arch in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France
The arch stands 12 meters tall with intricate relief carvings depicting military victories and symbols of Roman power on its exterior surfaces.
Constructed around 20 AD, the arch marked the northern entrance to the ancient Roman city of Glanum until its destruction by barbarians in 260 AD.
The monument features carved scenes from Caesar's conquest of Gaul and displays symbols representing the benefits of Roman administration over local territories.
Visitors can access the arch daily from sunrise to sunset through a designated path connected to the main archaeological site of Glanum.
The structure retains its original first-century Roman stonework, with an 18th-century rooftop addition replacing the missing ancient pediment.
