Standing in the northwestern corner of the Roman Forum, the Arch of Septimius Severus is a grand monument erected in AD 203 to honor the emperor’s military triumphs over the Parthians. Characterized by its triple-arched design, it boasts elaborate reliefs depicting victorious campaigns and spoils of war, offering a fascinating glimpse into Roman propaganda. Constructed from travertine and marble, it has weathered centuries of change yet remains a testament to imperial might. Visitors can walk underneath its central arch for an up-close view of carefully carved details. Nearby stands the Curia Julia, making this arch a must-see when exploring Rome’s ancient heart.
