I love the city Paris and its crown jewel, the Eiffel Tower, has always been a marvel in my eyes. Therefore I decided to recreate it on the Survival server I'm playing. All the resources will be gathered by hand and without flying, this build is quite a challenge.

Although I'm only working on the tower right now, eventually I plan on building a city around it.

The base is 85 blocks wide and I'm aiming at building it up to the world height limit, which should result in a 192 high building.


I would like to give credit to MerelyCubed, who posted his version of the Eiffel Tower to the Minecraft Forum 5 years ago. His build, which is very impressive, was what gave me the inspiration to actually start the build.
