Lindo arco em mármore branco erguido para homenagear o imperador Trajano. Do alto há uma deslumbrante vista do movimentado porto.
Amazed by its age and appearance. We were up by the cathedral looking down at the port so didn't get very close but read up on it in the map guide
Whilst in the sea port of Ancona you need to walk down to the end of the ferry port to find the The Arch of Trajan (115BC), It is a grand structure over looking the ocean. You could imagine the honor of being one of the triumphant solders returning & walking through the gate after a victory. Parts of the walled perimeter still exists where you can walk & get a great view. Its a pity that some of the modern day port has cut through the walls but the arch is worth a look, then continue you walk around teh ferry port as there are hidden preserved columns to find as well. There is another Arch "Arch of Clementino" that is also worth a look.
One of the most imposing Roman Arches I 've seen with the stairway up, at the end of the harbour pier
As a very big fan of the best of all roman emperors, I was very enthusiastic about the chance to visit an arc erected in his honour. The Arc didn'nt disappoint me! It is in a very good condition, the reliefs and the structure are very recognisable and impressive. Beside the arc itself, you can walk along the new and the medieval/historical wall of the harbor and get a great lokk at the busy harbor of Ancona. The best way to visit the Arc is as part of the self-guided walking tour trough Ancona. The Maps and guides for this you can get at the Tourist Information center. The tour is a fantastic way to see the best sights in Ancona and offers great background informations and recommendations for your stay - and it's free!
The Arch of Trajan is almost 6 stories high and was erected in the first century as an entrance to the causeway atop the harbor wall in honor of the emperor who had made improvements to the harbor. This is considered one of the finest Roman monuments in Le Marche. The arch stands on a high podium with wide flights of steps on each side. This arch sits amongst the port of Ancona flanked by cranes and ship building and you will have to walk along the port to visit. This makes for an interesting contrast of the ancient Roman against the modern port.
Si trova al porto della città, fatto costruire in onore a Traiano. Molto bello da vedere, circondato dal porto ed è stato recentemente restaurato che ne esalta la bellezza.
It's right in the midst of the busy modern port, and there's nothing to see by the arch.
Римское прошлое повсюду заявляет о себе в Анконе. Для тех, кто собирает лучшие античные памятники на Адриатике, надо обязательно подойти к этой арке. Она уступает всем римским сооружениям такого типа, но для провинции она достаточна хороша и представительна, хотя и скромная по декору.
Bello e tenuto veramente bene. Curato nella pulizia e nella manutenzione. Un monumento da visitare e apprezzare.
