Arc de Triomf

 

While similar in appearence to the famous Arc de Triomphe in Paris, this attraction was built to serve as an entrance for the 1888 Universal Exposition held in Parc Ciutadella. This attraction is also different due to its red brickworks and Moorish architecture.

A long passageway stretches out from the arc and is a popular place for long walks in the evening. Keep a lookout for Gaudi designed lamposts on the sides of the passageway.

Arc de Triomf can be accessed by Arc de Triomf metro station.
