History of the Eiffel Tower

Designed by French engineer Gustave Eiffel, the tower was built in 1889 for the World’s Fair to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution.

At the time, it was highly controversial — many Parisians called it ugly and feared it would ruin the city’s beauty. However, it quickly became an icon.

Originally meant to be temporary, it was saved thanks to its usefulness for radio and telegraph communications.

Today, it is one of the most visited monuments on Earth.
