PARIS, Tenn. — No need to travel to Paris, France — you can see two different Eiffel Towers right here in Tennessee. A new 8-foot Eiffel Tower now stands outside the library in Paris. It’s being called the Lock of Love after a tradition in Paris, France, in which lovers will attach a lock to a bridge and throw the key into the river to symbolize their commitment. The tower was built by students at the Tennessee College of Applied Technology in McKenzie. It took more than 100 hours to build.
