A view of the Washington Monument from the World War Two Memorial

The Washington Monument is an obelisk that stands 555 feet tall in Washington, D.C. dedicated to George Washington. Engraved on its metal cap is the Latin phrase "Laus Deo," meaning "Praise be to God." When It was completed it was the world's tallest structure until the Eiffel Tower was finished in 1889.
