The Triumphal Arch of Moscow is a Neoclassical monument designed by Joseph Bové to commemorate Russia's victory over Napoleon in 1812. Built in 1829–1834 on Tverskaya Zastava Square, the original was dismantled in 1936 during Stalin's reconstruction of downtown Moscow. Bové's original designs were rebuilt in 1966–1968 in the middle of Kutuzovsky Avenue, near Victory Park.
