The Eiffel tower is painted every seven years, and between fifty and sixty tons of paint are used each time.
Generally speaking, protective painting of the Eiffel Tower in an ongoing process.
Maintenance of the tower includes applying 50 to 60 tonnes of paint every seven years to protect it from rust. In order to maintain a uniform appearance to an observer on the ground, three separate colours of paint are used on the tower, with the darkest on the bottom and the lightest at the top. On occasion the colour of the paint is changed; the tower is currently painted a shade of brownish-grey.[29] On the first floor there are interactive consoles hosting a poll for the colour to use for a future session of painting.

it wasn't painted
To prevent rust.
The Eiffel Tower has been painted in a number of different colors throughout its history, but today, it is painted a color called "Eiffel Tower brown," which turns out to be the color of milk chocolate, and it is used in three very slightly different shades at different elevations of the tower (higher elevations use a lighter shade), in order to accentuate the impression of height. The paint is synthetic, lead-free, and silicone-based, and the entire structure is repainted over a period of 6-7 years by several dozen fearless and highly acrobatic painters, by hand (no automated way of painting the tower has ever been satisfactory). The most recent repainting operation (the nineteenth) began in 2009 and required about two years.
The Eiffel Tower was lasted painted in 2009. It is painted every seven years. Although at one time it was painted yellow, the special formulated paint now used to paint this structure is called Eiffel Tower brown. This structure in Paris was built for the 1889 to commemorate the centennial of the fall of the Bastille in 1789.
