The arch, built in April Juche 71 (1982) in honour of President Kim II Sung’s triumphant return after achieving national liberation, is located at the foot of Moran Hill.
The 60m-tall arch is made of about 10 500 granite pieces.
Carved in relief on the arch are the figures "1925" and "1945" symbolic respectively of the year when Kim II Sung embarked on the road of revolution and the year when he made his triumphant return home after liberating the country, and the immortal revolutionary paean Song of General Kim II Sung. A group bronze sculpture is engraved in bold relief on each wall of the four pillars.
