Eiffel Tower Anniversary

March 31, 2015 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Today is the 126th anniversary of the public opening of the Eiffel Tower. This iconic symbol of Paris wasn’t always beloved by the French, however. Read this:

When did the Eiffel Tower open, and why was it ‘a truly tragic street lamp’?

And did you know that the Eiffel Tower now has its own wind turbines? On our trip to Paris last fall I was so impressed with the steps France has taken to be environmentally friendly and this is just another example of their efforts.

The Eiffel Tower has new wind turbines, and they’re beautiful

Joyeux Anniversaire!
