The Triumphal Arch of Haidra is one of the remarkable tourist attractions in the City of Qasrayn . It was constructed in 195 By the Roman Command of Septimus Severus which is regarded as the golden era of Cillium . This arch was once surrounded by the Byzantine fortifications and this protected it for a long time . Interestingly , the roadway that passes through the arch is marvelously paved with cut stones in a highly artistic way . For visiting the Triumphal Arch one can take the road linking between Gafsa and the Roman Cillium of El Qasrayn since it locates about 250 meters away from the Cillium .
