"Eiffel Tower Reopens After Six-Day Strike"

The Eiffel Tower in Paris is set to reopen after a six-day closure due to strikes over its management and maintenance. The operator, SETE, reached a deal with unions, apologizing to affected ticket holders and agreeing to regularly monitor the company's business model and investment in works. Concerns over the monument's state and maintenance led to the strike, with an agreement for significant investment toward works and maintenance until 2031. The French Culture Minister suggested classifying the Eiffel Tower as a "historical monument" to allow state funding for future works.
