Stairs from Eiffel Tower sold for over ₹3.8 crore
A section of stairs from the Eiffel Tower was auctioned for over ₹3.8 crore (€523,800) last week. The 14 wrought-iron steps were part of a winding staircase between the second and third floors of the Eiffel Tower. The staircase, which is 2.6-metre-high and dates back to 1889, was dismantled from the tower when a lift was installed in 1983.
