I have a vintage line drawing of the Eiffel Tower for you today.
Nicknamed La Dame de fer, meaning the Iron Lady, the Eiffel Tower was built in 1889 and is the icon that represents Paris and France. The tower is the tallest building in Paris and the most-visited paid monument in the world. It was built to be the entrance arch to the 1889 World's Fair.
The tower stands 1,063 feet high, the equivalent to an 81 story building. The tower has three levels with restaurants on the first and second levels. On November 28, 2002 the tower received its 200,000,000th visitor and beginning in 2004 there has been an ice skating rink on the first level.
