Eiffel Tower at true scale

Eiffel Tower (blue) beside the Washington Monument, the Apollo–Saturn V and the Great Pyramid of Giza, all on one scale.

Paris’s iron lattice tower reaches 330 m to the tip of its antennas. Encyclopaedia Britannica gives the tower itself as 300 m, standing on a 5 m base, with television antennas adding the rest. That is shorter than the Empire State Building’s 381 m architectural height, which leaves out its antenna. In the game the Eiffel Tower’s height always includes the antennas.

Compared with familiar things

  • The Eiffel Tower is about 1.9× the Washington Monument (169.3 m · 555 ft).
  • The Eiffel Tower is about 3.0× the Apollo–Saturn V (110.6 m · 363 ft).
  • The Eiffel Tower is about 2.4× the Great Pyramid of Giza (137 m · 449 ft).
