Eiffel Tower is a iron tower on the Champ de Mars in Paris, France. It is named after engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower. Locally called the Iron Lady (French: La dame de fer), it was built from 1887 to 1889 as the centerpiece of the 1889 Universal Exhibition and was initially criticized by some leading French artists and intellectuals for its design, but it has become a global cultural icon of France and one of the most recognized structures in the world.
