Arch of Peace in Milan

Saturday, April 30, 2011

The Arch of Peace was originally designed by Luigi Cagnola to celebrate Napoleon's entrance into the city. After the defeat of Napoleon, work was interrupted and the designs were changed. In 1831, the Arch of Peace was inaugurated by Franz I of Austria and was dedicated to the European Peace reached in 1815.
