Augustus Arch
Built in 27 B.C. in honor of Caesar Octavian Augustus, it is the oldest of the surviving Roman arches and stands at the end point of the Via Flaminia (which connected Rome to Rimini).
Built of Istrian stone, the archway measures m. 8.84 with a depth of m. 4.10 and a height of m. 10.40. The architecture is enhanced by a rich decorative apparatus, charged with political and propagandistic meanings. The opening of the archway, so wide that it could not be closed by doors, recalled the peace achieved after a long period of civil wars. Between the arch lintel and the capitals, of Corinthian order, four deities can be seen (in four clypeus), extolling the greatness of Rome and the power of Augustus: on the outer side Jupiter, with the bundle of thunderbolts, an expression of imperial power, and Apollo, dear to Augustus and his family, with the zither and raven, symbols of his connection with music and his power to speak through oracles; toward the city Neptune, with the trident and dolphin, and Rome, with the sword and trophy, images of dominion over the seas and the land. On both faces of the Arch are placed two ox heads, symbolically attesting to Rimini's status as a Roman colony.
Isolation work in 1937-39 led to the realization that the arch was an urban gateway linked on both sides with the city walls.
The original construction, of masonry faced with Istrian stone, was topped by an attic that was to be completed with a statue of the emperor on horseback or on a quadriga. The top, perhaps collapsed by earthquakes, was concluded in the Middle Ages by battlements, which are still present today.
The Augustus Arch, restored in recent times, has returned to its former glory, enhanced by the 'surrounding area redeveloped into public green space with trees and flower beds.
How to get there:
It can be reached from the sea, by car, driving along Via Tripoli and taking Via XX Settembre (the beginning of Via Flaminia) to which it serves as an evocative backdrop, or on foot or by bicycle along the bike paths that from Piazza Kennedy wind through the greenery of Cervi Park to the Arch.

Tiberius Bridge
An imposing architectural work of Roman times, the bridge was erected over the Marecchia River by decree of Emperor Augustus and its completion was due to his successor Tiberius (14 - 21 AD).
Made of Istrian stone, with five arches in the Doric style, it represents one of the most remarkable surviving Roman bridges; an important document of the technical wisdom of the Romans is evidenced by the foundations of the individual piers, which are not disjointed from each other but widen at the base and rest on a functional system of wooden piles, so as to ensure the most complete stability. The piers also have breakwater spurs, which are oblique to the road axis in order to soften the impact of the current, accommodating its course.
The bridge marks the beginning of the consular roads, Emilia and Popilia, heading north and is located at the end of the city's main historic street (Corso d'Augusto).
How to get there:
Old town center: from the station continue on Viale Dante to the central Piazza Tre Martiri; from here take the corso to the right and continue to the bridge.
