Architecture

In 1960 Charles de Gaulle proposed that the tower be temporarily dismantled and transported to Montreal for Expo 67.

After visiting the Great Exhibition of 1851, Prince Albert commissioned a prefabricated iron building for Balmoral to serve as a temporary ballroom and dining room.

The record for running up to the top floor of a skyscraper belongs to Paul Crake, who managed to achieve 9 minutes and 33 seconds. He set his record in 2003.

King Louis XIV had his morning rituals.

Balmoral Castle was a favorite haunt of Elizabeth II, as it was for her great-grandmother Victoria.

Initially, the tower was to stand for only 20 years after its construction, but due to its use for telecommunications purposes, its life was prolonged.

At that time, Malbork Castle also served as a state prison.

The period of Versailles' splendor ended with the French Revolution, which broke out in 1789.

Construction of the Statue lasted from 1876 to 1882.

The cathedral's pipe organ was built in 1403 but has not survived to the present day. Only 12 pipes and a small part of the wooden structure remain. The creator of the original pipe organs was Frédéric Schambantz.
