Siegestor (Vitcory Arch)

U-Bahn 3 or 6: Universität station

At the northern end of Ludwigstrasse stand the Victory Arch from the mid-19th century. Built after the concept of Rome’s Arch of Constantine, it has a bronze figure of Bavaria. The formerly martial monument, honouring the famed Bavarian army, has been provided with a new inscription intended to convert it to a peace memorial. It says: ‘Dem Siege geweiht. Vom Krieg zerstört. Zum Frieden mahnend’ (Dedicated to victory. Destroyed by war. Calling for peace).
