Tour Metallique

Murs_peints_etats10 Lyons is wrongly accused of losing its soul when trying to impersonate Paris. Even if this is a cold and unjustified attack to Lyon, the metal tower on Fourvière hill next to the basilique is proof indeed. In 1893, 4 years after the Universal Exhibition in Paris, E. Colonge was given the task of building a replica of the Eiffel Tower in Lyons. This one is only 80m high and as the original is now used as a television relay station.
