The Siegestor is located about one kilometer north of the Feldherrnhalle and separates the Ludwigstraße, which ends there, from the Leopoldstraße, which has its beginning here. This marks the Siegestor the border between the two Munich districts Maxvorstadt and Schwabing. It has a height of 24 meters. With the Siegestor Friedrich von Gärtner succeeded more than a copy of the Arch of Constantine. The columns, set on high pedestals, emphasize the clear vertical structure. The massive woodwork presses on a heavy load similar to the harmoniously rhythmic three arches. This gives the triumphal arch the architectural power to catch the train of the Victory Gate and to pass it on to the fields and meadows that still dominated in 1852. The enthralling quadriga floats above the victory gate and emphasizes its central axis. At the same time the Bavaria drives on the Quadriga out of town into the fields and meadows looking towards "the Bavarian army" as the inscription on the north side reveals. Johann von Halbig delivered the colossal four-horse-drawn car from Löwen to the model of Johann Martin von Wagner's design for Bavaria, which Friedrich Brugger modeled.
