Best Answer

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.

Why was the Eiffel Tower givin the name it has?

There was a man called Gustave Eiffel who was a civil engineer and designed the Eiffel Tower and was given an office at the top. The French government were going to have the tower removed due to its lack of use, so Gustave altered the tower so it had a radio transmitter so it could be kept. So therefore the name Eiffel was given to the tower, because of the man who designed it.
