The symbol in archways on buildings is often referred to as a "keystone." This is the central stone at the apex of an arch that locks the other stones into place, allowing the arch to bear weight. In a broader architectural context, decorative motifs or symbols found in archways can also be referred to as "ornamentation" or specific designs like "spandrels," depending on their placement and function.
