The Arch of the Centuries is a triumphal arch at the Plaza Intramuros of the University of Santo Tomas (UST) in Manila, in the Philippines that stands fifteen metres away from the university's ''Millennium Gate'' along España Boulevard.〔(UST landmarks declared 'National Treasures' ) Manuel Maximo Lopez del Castillo-Noche, ''Philippine Daily Inquirer''. Published 01-25-2010〕 The present single structure puts together, back-to-back, the ruins of the original Intramuros arch, which faces the Main Building, and its replica, fronting España Boulevard. The arch was formerly the original entrance to the university when the campus was still in Intramuros during the years from 1680 to 1941.〔(Arch of the Centuries ) ''The Varsitarian Website'' accessed May 16, 2012〕 It was declared by the National Museum as a National Cultural Treasure on January 25, 2011.〔(Formal Declaration of UST National Cultural Treasures ) ''University of Santo Tomas Museum Website'' accessed may 16, 2012〕 ==History== The Arch of the Centuries was originally erected around 1680 at Intramuros, where UST was originally established. After World War II, the university transferred to its present location at Sampaloc. The Arch was also carried piece-by-piece and was re-erected at the present Plaza Intramuros in 1954.〔 The original Arch which faces the Main Building was the main doorway to the university building before it was destroyed during World War II when it was at Intramuros. A newer arch faced España Boulevard, which is a reconstruction of the original arch.〔(Arch of the Centuries ) (UST.edu.ph ). Accessed 12 August 2006〕 In January 25, 2010, it was declared a ''National Cultural Treasure'', along with the University Main Building, the Central Seminary Building, and the university field, by the National Museum of the Philippines.〔
