The Eiffel Tower’s official height is 330 meters including its antenna.

The Claim

The Eiffel Tower is 330 meters tall.

Verified by Lenz ·

The Short Version

Available evidence strongly supports the 330-meter figure as the Eiffel Tower’s current official height. The tower’s operator and multiple major news outlets confirm that it reached 330 meters after a new antenna was added in March 2022. The main caveat is that this figure includes the antenna, not just the original iron structure.

Caveats

  • The 330-meter figure is the current official total height, including the antenna added in March 2022.
  • The original iron structure is about 300 meters tall; before the 2022 antenna, the commonly cited total height was 324 meters.
  • The tower’s exact measured height can vary slightly with temperature, but only by a small amount that does not affect the official 330-meter figure.
