About the Eiffel Tower

The Eiffel Tower is one of the world's most recognizable monuments. Located at the heart of Paris on the Champ de Mars, no trip to the French capital is complete without admiring this symbol of French culture and history. Constructed from wrought iron, the Eiffel Tower was used as the entranceway to the 1889 World's Fair. This date also coincided with the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution. 

The Eiffel Tower was designed by world-famous architect Gustave Eiffel, who was also responsible for drawing the Statue of Liberty's blueprints. Standing at over 1,000 feet high, the Eiffel Tower is the tallest structure in Paris. It took over two years to build and is composed of over 18,000 individual pieces of iron. Today, the Eiffel Tower is one of the most popular pay-to-visit monuments globally, with over six million visitors every year.

Fun fact: The Eiffel Tower gets a fresh coat of paint every seven years, with 500 workers applying 60 tons of paint to this gigantic landmark.
