Arch of Titus, Triumphal arch in Roman Forum, Italy.

The white marble arch spans 13.5 meters in width and reaches 15.4 meters in height, featuring detailed relief sculptures on both interior walls.

Emperor Domitian ordered the construction of this monument in 81 CE to honor his brother Titus and commemorate the Roman victory over Jerusalem.

The arch displays significant reliefs depicting the golden menorah and other sacred items taken from the Temple of Jerusalem during the Roman conquest.

The monument stands near the entrance of the Roman Forum archaeological site, which requires a combination ticket for entry and operates daily.

The interior vault contains the first known representation of a deceased Roman emperor ascending to join the ranks of the gods.
