The Triumphal Arch of Orange (French: Arc de triomphe d’Orange) is a triumphal arch located in the town of Orange southeast France. There is debate about when the arch was built but current research that accepts the inscription as evidence favours a date during the reign of Augustus (27 BC – AD 14). It was built on the former via Agrippa to honor the veterans of the Gallic Wars and Legio II Augusta.
