The Rua Augusta Arch stands at southern end of Rua Augusta, Lisbon’s main pedestrian street, at the entrance to Praca do Comercio. It is one of the most famous symbols of Lisbon. It was originally designed in 1775 to provide a gateway to the city. The arch that exists today was actually constructed in 1875 and totally refurbished in 2013. An elevator was installed as part of the 2013 refurbishment so now it is possible to go to the top of the arch to have a great view of the city and the River Tagus.
