Erected between 180 and 196, this marble monument celebrates the victories of the emperor Marcus Aurelius, which is in the form of a spiral with 190 internal steps.
It's free, it's ancient, why not?! The spiral, carved pictures tells the story of Marcus Aurelius' wars along the Danube, these wars were waged by him from 166 to his death. Also, a bronze statue of the apostle St. Paul was placed on the top, to go with that of St. Peter on Trajan's Column in 1588. Originally the top had a statue of Marcus Aurelius.
