Arches of Triumph, Triumphal arches in Novocherkassk, Russia
The monumental complex includes two distinct 12-meter high limestone arches positioned at the northern and western entrances of the city.
Built in 1817 by architect Luigi Rusca, these neoclassical structures commemorate the Russian victory over Napoleon's forces in the Patriotic War of 1812.
The arches display inscriptions honoring Emperor Alexander I and represent the significant contribution of Don Cossacks to Russian military achievements.
These federal cultural heritage monuments stand as prominent navigation landmarks, with the western arch marking the southwestern entrance and the northern arch indicating the northern gateway.
The structures served as architectural inspiration for the design of the Narva Triumphal Gates in Saint Petersburg during the 1820s.
