The Augustus Arch

Erected in 27 B.C. in honour of Augustus, as inscribed on the upper part of the Arch, it is the oldest surviving Roman archway and is made of Istrian stone. The vault is 8.84 metres high, it has a depth of 4.10 metres and the entire structure is 10.40 metres tall. Between the Arch's lintels and its capitals there are four divinities (in four clipei): Jupiter, Neptune, Apollo and Minerva (or Rome). Work done to isolate the structure between 1937 and 1939 led to the realization that the the Arch was an urban gateway attached on two sides to the walls of the city. It is said that at the summit of the Arch there was once a marble statue of a four-horsed chariot driven by Augustus. During the Medieval period the the upper part of what was then known as the Aurea Gateway, was dismantled. The battlements which can now be seen were constructed in the 10th century.

The Tiberius Bridge

Proceeding along the Corso d'Augusto, one eventually leaves the ancient Roman city behind and comes to a large bridge made of Istrian stone. Begun by Augustus, the bridge was finished by Tiberius (14-21 A.D.). This bridge marks the beginning of the Aemilian Way, just as the Arch marked the end of the Flaminian Way. It is one of the most remarkable Roman bridges still in existence and has been a national monument since 1885. The fact that the foundations of the bridge's pillars are not disjoined from each other but form a single foundation, in a way that guarantees more complete stability, is important evidence of the Romans' technical knowledge.
