Paris 2024 Olympic Medals Feature Iron From The Eiffel Tower

Retired French biathlete and sous-lieutenant Martin Fourcade participates in the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games medal unveiling ceremony at the Paris 2024 headquarters in Saint-Denis on February 8, 2024. The medals at this year’s Olympics in Paris were not only inspired by the Eiffel Tower — they each contain an original piece of the 19th-century landmark. Unveiling the designs Thursday, Games organizers said that ironwork removed from the structure during earlier renovations had been repurposed to create the medals’ hexagonal centerpiece. The move, they added, would give successful athletes “veritable pieces of the history of Paris” to take home with them. Photo by Firas Abdullah/ABACAPRESS.COM
