The Eiffel Tower, an iconic symbol of Paris, France, underwent evacuation for several hours due to a bomb threat. The management body overseeing the site, SETE, disclosed that bomb disposal experts and police conducted searches, including in a restaurant on one of the tower’s floors. Evacuation occurred across the tower’s levels and surrounding square, with a security perimeter established. The situation was described as rare but standard procedure. The alert was later lifted, as confirmed by both a police source and SETE. The Eiffel Tower, constructed from January 1887 to March 1889, garnered two million visitors during the 1889 World’s Fair.
