The Colosseum is the most famous and one of the most grandiose buildings of the Ancient World that have survived to this day. The Colosseum has gone down in history so much that from 1928 to 2000, a fragment of its colonnade was depicted on medals awarded to the winners of the Olympic Games, thereby serving as a symbol of classicism and a reminder of the Games held in antiquity. This grandiose structure personifies the imperial greatness and power of the Ancient One Rome. Its instantly recognizable silhouette over time has become the emblem of the Eternal City, like the Eiffel Tower for Paris or the Kremlin for Moscow. The Colosseum has witnessed many significant events, brilliant performances and bloody battles took place in its arena, and the very stones of this amphitheater breathe history.
