There were Egyptian three obelisks known as Cleopatra's Needles which were originally erected at Heliopolis. They have nothing to do with Cleopatra. One was taken to London and re-erected on the Thames Embankment in 1879 after an eventful voyage. A second was taken to Paris and re-erected in the Place de la Concorde in 1833. The third was erected in Central Park in New York in 1881.
