To honour their victories the Romans built the triumphal arches. These were monumental structures with arches. Their walls were covered with reliefs with scenes of the won battle and dedications to the general (during the Roman Republic) or the emperor (later) who won the battle. The Triumphal Arch in Paris and the Marble Arch in London are modelled on the Roman triumphal arch. The most famous triumphal arch in Rome is the Arch of Constantine.

Some emperors had also triumphal columns built. These were tall columns built by stacking large drums of marble and were covered with , again, reliefs with scenes of the won battle. The most famous of these are the Column of Trajan and the Column of Marcus Aurelius. Both are still standing in the city of Rome.
