The tower was built as the entrance arch to the 1889 World's Fair.
The architect, Gustave Eiffel, had a permit for the tower to stand for 20 years; it was to be dismantled in 1909, when the City of Paris would take over ownership. The City had planned to tear it down (part of the original contest rules for designing a tower was that it could be easily demolished) but as the tower proved valuable for communication purposes, it was allowed to remain after the expiry of the permit.
