Uma das memórias urbanas dos romanos em Mérida. Cidade que foi a capital da Lusitânia.

Impresiona la dimensión de este arco, era una de las entradas a la ciudad, pero curiosamente no tiene nada que ver con el emperador Trajano. Sus dimensiones resultan increibles para la técnica de la época, está claro que eran grandes ingenieros, al conseguir mover y colocar esos sillares de piedra, que conforman el arco, que por otra parte ha llegado intacto hasta nuestros días. Tiene una altura aproximada de 15 metros, más dos metros, que en la actualidad están por el nivel inferior, y que era el nivel de la antigua ciudad de Mérida.

Imprescindible visita y si es con guía mejor para saber la historia que hay detrás
