a Trabi at the Arc de Triomphe - not the one in Paris


A Trabi as well as a city bus can be seen passing the Arcul de Triumf in Bucharest, Romania, in the 1970s. It has a height of 27 metres (89 ft) and was completed in 1936, thus well before the days of Communist dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu. It has a foundation of 25 x 11.50 metres.  The one in Paris is much bigger: 50 metres (164 ft) in height, 45 metres (148 ft) wide by 22 metres (72 ft) deep.
