They Built the Eiffel Tower Piece by Piece — Witho

In 1887, hundreds of ironworkers began building a tower that many believed would ruin the skyline of Paris. Nearly 300 meters tall, the Eiffel Tower demanded extraordinary precision, dangerous work at dizzying heights, and thousands of iron pieces that had to fit together almost perfectly. With no modern cranes or computer-guided technology, workers assembled the structure piece by piece, driving hundreds of thousands of rivets by hand. But could their engineering withstand the challenge? Discover the remarkable story behind the construction of the Eiffel Tower, the forgotten workers who raised it, and the engineering achievement that transformed a controversial monument into one of the most recognizable structures in the world.
