The Eiffel Tower is an iron tower built on the Champ de Mars beside the River Seine in Paris. The tower has become a global icon of France and is one of the most recognizable structures in the world.

Earth-One

Years ago, the alien scientist Brainiac came to Earth and began stealing various famous landmarks, miniaturizing them and placing them in bottle containers for transport on his ship. The Eiffel Tower was just one of many such landmarks. Superman fought with Braniac and succeeded in returning everything to its proper size and location. ^[1].

Several years later, a gambler named Achille La Heele kidnapped Simon Stagg and forced his employer Metamorpho to commit various crimes for him. One of these crimes involved the literal theft of the Eiffel Tower. ^[2]

New Earth

In the second year of his career, Superman brought Lois Lane to the Eiffel Tower on a romantic getaway. This was long before she would discover that Superman was also her co-worker, mild-mannered Clark Kent. ^[3]

Earth-50

The Eiffel Tower was likely destroyed when it struck an alien ship during an attempted invasion by the Conquernauts of Yoke^[4]
