包含一個以上拱頂通道的紀念性結構物，用來表彰重要人物或紀念重大事件，尤其是戰爭勝利；其基本形式包括由拱頂所連接之兩側柱墩以及拱頂上用以作為雕像基座並銘刻紀念碑文的上層結構；其所在位置則通常橫跨勝利遊行所經的街道。一般認為凱旋門乃古代羅馬建築，但可能源自他處或者源自凱旋城門(Porta Triumphali)，亦即凱旋的羅馬軍隊進入羅馬的神聖市區前必須穿越的門徑。

凱旋式

英文....	Monumental structures containing at least one arched passageway and erected to honour an important person or to commemorate a significant event, particularly a victory in war. The basic form consisted of two piers connected by an arch, over which was placed a superstructure that served as a base for statues and bore commemorative inscriptions. Triumphal arches generally spanned a roadway used for triumphal processions. They are associated with ancient Roman architecture, however, they possibly developed elsewhere or from the Porta Triumphalis, which was a gate in Rome through which the victorious Roman army had to pass before entering the sacred city territory of Rome.
荷蘭語....	Oorspronkelijk in de Romeinse tijd vrijstaande poorten of bogen ter ere van zegevierende veldheren of keizers; thans erepoorten. VDW
