TRIUMPHAL ARCH (TRIUMPHPFORTE)
This Roman-inspired Baroque monument, built in the century, is richly decorated.
The triumphal arch of Innsbruck was built in the 18th century at the request of Empress Maria Theresa of Austria to glorify the marriage of her son, the future Emperor Leopold II. It was also intended to honour the memory of Emperor Francis I, the Empress' husband, who died during the festivities. This is why one half of the vault symbolizes the wedding, and the other half the funeral event. Richly decorated, this Roman-inspired baroque monument is well worth a visit.
