Marble Arch is a monument situated at the intersection of Oxford Street, Park Lane and Edgware Road, London.

It was moved to its present position in 1851 and is now part of a large traffic island.

It was designed by John Nash as a gateway to Buckingham Palace in 1828.

The design was based on the triumphal arch of Constantine in Rome.
