About Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower, a global symbol of Paris, rises 324 meters high. Built in 1889 by Gustave Eiffel, it boasts three levels, each offering unique perspectives of the city. The top level provides sweeping views of Parisian landmarks, while the first two levels host exhibitions and dining options. Its intricate iron lattice design and nightly light show make it an architectural and cultural marvel.
Gustave Eiffel, the man behind the Eiffel Tower, once had a private apartment on the third floor. Now open to visitors, it still has its original décor, giving a peek into his world and the style of his time.
The Eiffel Tower undergoes repainting every 7 years to preserve its legendary appearance. This meticulous process requires approximately 60 tons of paint to cover the entirety of the structure, ensuring its continued visual splendor.
The Eiffel Tower's height can vary by up to 6 inches, depending on the changing temperature. In summer, the iron expands, and in winter, it contracts.
Acting as a natural lightning conductor, the Eiffel Tower encounters an annual average of 10 lightning strikes. Its towering structure and strategic location contribute to this phenomenon.
Originally pained as reddish-brown, the Eiffel Tower underwent various color transformations before settling into its present hue, known as "Eiffel Tower Brown," blending bronze and brown tones for its distinctive appearance.
