During the summer months, the Eiffel Tower gets a little taller.
The thermal expansion generated by exposure to the summer
sun can cause the Eiffel Tower to increase in height by as much
as 6.75 inches (17 cm). This change is only temporary, and as the
sunlight begins to fade, the expansion decreases.
