Discover the Eiffel Tower in Slobozia, a replica of the famous Parisian monument located in the Hermes Park, a testimony to a man's ambition and dreams.
A fascinating story:
The Eiffel Tower in Slobozia was built on the initiative of Ilie Alexandru, one of the first Romanian millionaires after the Revolution, who wanted to bring some of the splendour of Paris closer to home. The tower was built in 1996, along with a replica of the Southfork farmhouse from the TV show Dallas, both part of the ambitious Hermes Park.
A symbol of ambition:
The Eiffel Tower in Slobozia is an impressive building, reaching a height of 50 meters, being a faithful replica of the original monument in Paris. Although not as grand as the original, the tower remains a symbol of ambition and the desire to bring beauty and modernity to Romania.
A nostalgic destination:
Hermes Park enjoyed a heyday in the 1990s as a major tourist attraction. Today, the park lies in disrepair and the Eiffel Tower in Slobozia is a reminder of Ilie Alexandru's great dreams. Nevertheless, the tower remains an interesting destination for history and architecture buffs, offering an insight into the ambitions and aspirations of post-communist Romania.
