A 29-meter-long and 15-meter-high five-ring steel structure will adorn the iconic Paris landmark to commemorate the 50 days of Thursday before the start of the Olympic Games. Located on the south side, overlooking the Seine River in the center of Paris, it will be visible throughout the Summer Games.

The Eiffel Tower is expected to play a prominent role in the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. It has already been known that the original iron obtained during a remodeling of the same will be part of the medals that will be awarded to the great champions.

“The sophisticated lighting scheme for the rings, which allows them to appear in their five colors during the day and in bright white at night, has been successfully tested,” they confirmed from the company in charge of the installation, after tests carried out in eastern France.
