Fall head over heels for this dreamy architectural model starring the City of Love's famous landmark, the Eiffel Tower. Recreate Gustave Eiffel's outstanding engineering in this 1:638 scale model of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Standing at 330 meters tall, it held the honor of being the world's tallest building for 41 years, from its completion in 1889 to 1930 when New York City's Chrysler Building dethroned it. Over the years, the Iron Lady, as affectionately called by French people, became not just a prominent feature of the Parisian skyline, but also a symbol of French culture.
