Julianus, the last pagan Roman emperor, [7] declared war on the Persians in 362 and created a route that would pass through Ankara. Upon the news that the emperor would take a break on the way to the expedition and stay in the city, preparations began in the whole city and the Julianus Column was erected to honor him. [8] [9] [10] The Column of Julianus, which did not undergo any repairs or renovations for many years, was restored by the governorship in 2001. [11] [12]
