You're standing at the Arco de la Victoria, Madrid's Arch of Victory. Take a moment to look up. Counting the chariot of Minerva on top, it rises forty-nine metres. People sometimes call it the Puerta de Moncloa, because it resembles famous gates like the Puerta de Alcalá. But this arch carries a heavy story.
