The Eiffel Tower: The Tower They Tried to Tear Down — 2 Hour Sleep Story | Calm British Narration

Fall asleep to the story of the Eiffel Tower — a structure built for twenty years that refused to disappear, hated by artists, sold by a con man, and saved by radio. This is a bedtime story for grown-ups. The narration is calm. The music is soft. And if you fall asleep before the end — that is exactly what we're here for. 🏛️ Chapters: 0:00 Introduction 0:45 Opening — Night on the Seine 4:05 Gustave Eiffel — Early Life 8:02 The Age of Iron 10:42 Eiffel's Bridges 13:28 Paris in the 1880s 16:20 Universal Expositions 19:14 The Competition 26:22 The Tower's Mathematics 30:30 The Artists' Protest 35:59 Construction — Foundations 41:05 Construction — Iron and Rivets 43:27 Construction — Workers 47:06 Construction — Rising 51:12 The Flag 54:24 The 1889 Exposition 1:00:30 Eiffel's Apartment 1:03:34 Panama Canal Scandal 1:08:07 Saving the Tower — Science 1:09:53 Saving the Tower — Radio 1:12:31 Victor Lustig 1:18:39 WWI — Battle of the Marne 1:22:59 Mata Hari 1:25:34 Post-WWI 1:26:48 Broadcasting Era 1:29:29 Painting the Tower 1:30:49 German Occupation 1:35:26 Liberation 1:36:22 Post-War — Television 1:37:46 Tourism Boom 1:41:56 Night Lighting 1:44:10 The Tower Today 1:48:19 Art and Culture 1:53:53 Ageing and Renovation 1:55:11 Replicas and Legacy 1:57:02 Closing — Night 1:59:15 Seasons 🌙 In this episode: • The 1889 World's Fair • Gustave Eiffel's bold proposal • The artists' protest • Construction in 26 months • Victor Lustig — the man who sold it twice • Radio saves the tower from demolition • Hitler's failed destruction order • The tower in modern Paris New episodes every Wednesday and Sunday. #sleepstory #eiffeltower #paris #bedtimestory #architecture #history #sleep #relaxing #asmr #thedrowsyarchitect
