The Colossus was completed in 280 B.C., after twelve years of construction. It was toppled during an earthquake in 226 B.C. So it had stood erect for only 56 years.
However, the toppled remains were left where they had fallen for about 880 years, until Rhodes fell to an invading Arab army in 654 A.D. During that time, they remained a popular tourist attraction; so in a very real sense, the Colossus actually lasted for 936 years, or almost a full millennium.
