The Arc de Triomphe is an ancient monument to Roman-Provençal grandeur.

Classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dating from the 1st century, it was, at the time, the main gate of the city. Situated on the Agrippa road and dedicated to the glory of the veteran founders of the Roman colony of Orange, this monument is essential in Romano-Provençal art. Today, it is set back from the city centre. It can be seen very clearly from the top of the hill. The representation of captive Gauls on the Corinthian columns symbolized the domination of Rome. On the attic, a battle scene is depicted between the Roman cavalry and the Barbarians.

What a monument! Incredible! So old and always standing, and in very good condition! The square has just been redone, offering an even more sparkling Arc de Triomphe. Bravo to the city of Orange! Free and not to miss!

c'est un incontournable même si quand vous en avez fait un vous les avez fait tous. difficile d'y échapper, c'est l'étape de beaucoup de bus qui déversent leurs touristes pour des photos.

un superbe arc de triomphe, très imposant, et très bien conservé. se garer au pied car on trouve un parking juste devant gratuit. aller au pied bien l'observer. c'est magnifique et on se sent tout petit en dessous. de là quelques minutes suffisent pour rejoindre le théâtre antique à pied, c'est parfait. cet arc possède des décors bien conservés et complète la visite du théâtre.
