Built in memory of Russia's victories, notably in the Russo-Turkish War of 1828, the arch was designed by Vasily Stasov. City leaders originally planned to place it by Obvodny Canal, but as the city limits expanded further south, the site was moved to the intersection of the Moscow Road and the Ligovsky Canal. Its new location, created the added benefit of making the Triumphal Arch an impressive gateway to the capital.
