The Eiffel Tower is located in Paris, France. It was constructed between
1887 and 1889 to be the entranceway to the 1889 World's Fair and to celebrate
the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution. The Tower was opened to
visitors on May 6,1889.
Gustave Eiffel's design was chosen from among 107 that were submitted to the
World's Fair design competition. However, many Parisians, especially artists, did
not like his design and protested the tower's construction. They thought it would
be an eyesore, but once it was built, most Parisians soon loved the tower.
The tower is made of iron and weights over 10,000 tons. It is 324 meters tall,
including antenna at its top, and has a staircase with 1,665 steps. There are also
elevators to take visitors to the top platform where there is a panoramic view of
Paris. The original elevators, now computerized, are still in use. Over 60 tons of
paint are applied to the tower every seven years to keep it from rusting.
The Eiffel Tower has become a symbol of Paris. It is the most recognized
monument in Europe, and many people think it is an architectural masterpiece.
Over 250 million people have visited it since May of 1889.
