The French engineer Gustave Eiffel and his company were the entrepreneurs of such a project that began in 1887 was completed in March 1889, just over two years later. The work generated no little controversy, especially among artists of the time, who thought of the tower as an "iron monster" in the middle of the city of romance.
The tower is a huge metal structure that weighs 10,000 tons and its height was originally 300 meters, 324 meters is now including radio and television antenna that was added much later.

El destino de la torre al cabo de 20 años parecía no ser otro que la destrucción.
