The Pennsylvania State Memorial, Triumphal arch monument in Gettysburg, US.

The Pennsylvania State Memorial rises 110 feet tall with four grand supporting towers, an observation deck, and a dome topped by a 21-foot bronze statue.

Built between 1910 and 1917, the memorial displays 90 bronze tablets with 34,530 names of Pennsylvania soldiers who participated in the 1863 Battle of Gettysburg.

The memorial features eight statues depicting Pennsylvania leaders, including General George Meade, Governor Andrew Curtin, and President Abraham Lincoln, representing military and political figures.

Visitors can climb the spiral staircase within the northeast column to reach an observation platform offering views across the Gettysburg National Military Park.

The bronze statue at the top, known as The Goddess of Victory and Peace, was created using metal from melted Civil War cannons.
