HINT : This building was built between 1907 and 1910 to commemorate the first landfall of the pilgrims in 1620. Here is another view of the building, also giving a hint about its location.

 

[scifan57]

It's the Pilgrim Monument in Provincetown, Massachusets. It commemorates the spot where the pilgrims first stepped ashore in 1620.

Thats correct!

The Pilgrim Monument is 252 feet high and is the tallest all-granite structure in US.
Thats how the interior looks

Challenge is yours, Scifan!

It's 31' taller than the Bunker Hill Monument in Charlestown, Massachusetts, which is also all granite.

I'm Canadian, born and raised. I'm just interested in history.

 

[scifan57]

What is the structure in the background and where is it located?

 

[J. A.]

This is part of the wall that the Romans built in Londinium. The statue shows a Roman general.

Both are located in London, UK, and I suppose will be something I'd like to see when I visit London again.

 

[scifan57]

Correct, Johanna. This piece of the London wall is on Tower Hill, accross the road from the Tower of London and is one of the largest remaining sections of the wall.

The challenge is yours Johanna.

Parliament gates in Ottowa? I don't want to be the next challenger please? Just in the very VERY rare chance I'm right? It looks like the one in Victoria, BC, Canada .
