Arcul de Triumf in Bucharest, Romania, is a monumental arch that commemorates Romania's participation in World War I and the subsequent unification of the country. Standing at 27 meters tall, it was initially constructed of wood in 1922 to celebrate the victory and was later rebuilt in granite between 1935 and 1936 to ensure its durability. The arch, designed by architect Petre Antonescu, features intricate sculptures and inscriptions that honor Romanian soldiers and significant historical events.
