The statue is 30 meters high and is placed on an 8-meter pedestal.

The city was surrounded by a fortified wall about 3 km long.

As early as 1964, during an archeological survey, American researchers realized that this mound did not form naturally.

The sanctuary of the Archangel Michael was built on the island. It occupies a small part of the territory of Mont Saint-Michel.

The Alcázar of Seville, as well as the city's largest cathedral in the world and the 18th-century archive, are on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

During the civil war called the Wars of the Roses in the years 1377 - 1485, when England was divided into two houses of Lancaster and York and their supporters, the character of the Tower changed.

In the 4th century, when Christianity appeared in Armorica, a chapel dedicated to St. Stephen, the first Christian martyr, was erected on the island.

After the fall of Napoleon, thanks to the efforts of Ernst von Pfuel, who was the commander of the Prussian sector in captured Paris, the quadriga figure was packed and sent back to Berlin.

When the tower was commissioned on March 31, 1889, it was the tallest building in the world.

In 1284 the building work was again interrupted.
