The Arch Of TriumphBucharest, Romania
 4 / 5
The monument was installed on the Kiseleva highway in the first half of the 20th century. Until 1922 there was a wooden analogue of the monument. The Arc de Triomphe of Bucharest looks great like the Parisian one, but is not its full counterpart. The monument was built in honor of the defenders of the independence of Romania, a group of prominent Romanian architects: D. Pachuria, P. Antonescu, A. Kalinescu and others worked on the project. | Address: | Piața Arcul de Triumf, București | | Phone: | +40 787 584 104 | | Hours: | monday: Open 24 hours tuesday: Open 24 hours wednesday: Open 24 hours thursday: Open 24 hours friday: Open 24 hours saturday: Open 24 hours sunday: Open 24 hours |

An old dusty relic of a time long past. Another sad totem glorifying the death of many for the sake of a chosen few. In itself the building is useless.. Read more ». A small copy of another copy.

To do this, they built a temporary Triumph Arch, made of wood. Later in the same year, in preparation for the coronation of King Ferdinand I, the authorities decided to build a new, more durable one. Ten years later, in 1932, under the pressure of the media, the authorities decided to replace the basoreliefs from the exterior plaster with the new ones from stone or marble and the new inauguration took place on December 1, 1936, the event being one of the rare moments when Regina Maria appeared in public with her son, King Carol II.
The monument can sometimes be visited. In addition to the state of joy offered by the resonance of a triumphal arch, laden with respect and admiration by many significant historical moments, the 27-meter-high terrace offers a magnificent view. Often, exhibitions are organized inside the monument, occasions with which the public has access inside. |
