    The Arch of Augustus is a triumphal monument built in 9/8 BC in honor of the emperor Augustus.
    This arch, made mainly of marble, is one of the best preserved in Northern Italy and represents a symbol of Roman history in the region. An inscription on the structure says that it was commissioned by the Ligurian king Marco Iulius Cottius and recalls the 14 tribes that were part of his kingdom.
    Here you can immerse yourself in history from a unique glimpse of the city.

The predominantly marble arch is the best preserved of its kind in northern Italy. His inscription names as donor the Ligurian king Marcus Iulius Cottius and counts in this context the 14 belonging to the kingdom peoples.

    If you pass by Susa you must necessarily stop here, absolutely to see and near the arch there is also a park with benches and fountains, ideal for taking a break.
