PARIS (Sputnik) – The Eiffel Tower, one of the most prominent French landmarks, has been closed for the visits of tourists on Wednesday due to the workers’ strike, the spokesperson of Societe d’Exploitation de la Tour Eiffel told Sputnik.
“Today the tower was closed due to the strike. Now the talks between the management of the monument and the union have been suspended, we cannot say whether the tower will be working tomorrow or not,” the spokesperson of the tower’s operator said.
The strike is reportedly sparked by the staff’s discontent over the mismanagement of long queues to the elevators.
Over 6 million people visited Paris’ famous landmark in 2017.
