bericht van Francesco Meola

The Victor Emmanuel II National Monument, also known as the Altare della Patria (“Altar of the Fatherland”), is a large neoclassical monument in Rome built to honour Italy’s first king of a unified Italy, Victor Emmanuel II. Designed by Giuseppe Sacconi and completed in 1935, it features Corinthian columns, fountains, an equestrian sculpture of Victor Emmanuel II and two statues of Victoria riding on quadrigas. It also includes a museum dedicated to Italian unification, an elevators which provides access to the roof, and 243 external staircases. The complex serves as a secular temple consecrated to Italy and is regarded as one of the nation’s symbols. If the quadrigae and Winged Victorys are included, the height reaches 81 meters. Visitors can explore the Vittoriano at their leisure and enjoy breathtaking views of Rome.
