A monument dating from the century and erected in honor of the emperor Caracalla and Julia Domma, to be discovered in Volubilis.

Like the Capitoline, the Arc de Triomphe dates back to the 3rd century, and was erected in honor of the emperor Caracalla and his mother Julia Domna, no doubt in gratitude for a tax reduction. The monument is thought to have had an upper storey, rising to a height of almost 15 metres. Its collapsed vault has now been restored. Give yourself a few moments here to take in the immensity of the city, and to relax in the shade if you're visiting in summer, as the Arc de Triomphe is virtually the only shady spot on the site.

Derrière l'arc de triomphe, dans les habitations en ruine, vous pourrez trouver un symbole de fertilité, un phallus gravé dans un bloc de pierre. (faut chercher, pas indiqué dans les guides)

Immense !
Le site est immense et très bien entretenu. N'hésitez pas à faire la visite avec un guide qui vous expliquera tous les secrets de cette cité et de ses très belles mosaïques.

C'est l'élément le mieux conservé ! Il se découpe magnifiquement dans le paysage. On ne peut le manquer.

Magnifique
C'est le plus beau monument du site. Il a été très bien restaurée sans dénaturer le monument. A voir absolument.

Le site romain de Volubilis vaut le détour pour l'ensemble des monuments et notamment les mosaïques réparties dans les différentes maisons ( Vénus, Hercule , Chevalier ). Une grosse heure de visite est suffisante mais prolongez votre visite au village voisin de Moulay Idriss.
