The Eiffel Tower: history and stunning anecdotes
Joined 2020
Your guide will unveil the secrets of the Iron Lady, who was hated by a part of Parisians to finally turn to become the iconic symbol of France.
You will discover its original purpose, the technical challenges met during the construction, how the monument escaped from a planned demolition and what was its fate during WWII.
Then, watch the unbelievable events (sometimes illegal) who took place amongst this metal lace masterpiece all along its construction until nowadays.
