For example, a fraudster sold the tower twice. Here is a look at the history of the Eiffel Tower in France.

Did you know that the Eiffel Tower, which was built by 850 people and used 2 and a half million bolts and nails, was built in 1887 over two years? The Eiffel Tower was built between 1887 and 1889 as the entrance to an Exposition Universelle to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution, with geographical coordinates of 48 ° 51′29 ° N and 2 ° 17′40 ° E. The Eiffel was opened on March 31, 1889 and has been publicly visited since May 6 of that year. Three hundred workers, using three million and five hundred rivets, assembled 18,038 pieces of metal. The construction of such a building was undoubtedly at risk. The construction of this massive tower had only one casualty during the elevator installation


From the beginning of the 20th century until 1909 Eiffel was used as a radio transmitter. Since 1957 the Eiffel Tower has been used for broadcasting FM radio and television. Eiffel has two restaurants called Altitude 95 on the first floor (95 meters above sea level) and Jules Verne, a very expensive French restaurant with private elevator. The names of 72 French scientists and engineers who helped launch and build the project are engraved on the tower. Over the engraving was painted in the early 20th century. In 1986, a company called SNTE restored the engraving. The company is in charge of managing and maintaining Eiffel in a deal with Paris authorities.

The Eiffel Tower, 300 meters high, is roughly equivalent to a 70-story building, Including a 24-meter antenna located above it, the overall height of the tower reaches 324 meters, an 81-story building. The Eiffel Tower was built in 1889 as the tallest tower in the world until it was built in 1930 by Chrysler, a 319-meter-high skyscraper in New York City.   Today, Eiffel ranks second in France after the Allouis Longwave transmitter with a height of 350 meters, but still holds first place in Paris. The building has 7,300 tons of metal and weighs 10,100 tons.

The Eiffel Tower was originally red and took about a year to change its color with 3 tons When the tower opened, its color was red. In fact, the Eiffel Tower has been painted 18 times, not just red, and even experienced yellow. Nowadays, the tower is painted in bronze and is officially called the Eiffel Tower Brown, which was used 60 tonnes of color to paint and lasted a year


It is interesting to know that a professional fraudster named Victor Lustig sold the Eiffel Tower twice in 1925. Click the link below to read more about this topic
