Eiffel Tower to reopen on 25 June

The Eiffel Tower in Paris will reopen on 25 June from its longest closure since World War Two after being forced to shut for more than three months because of the pandemic, the tower's management has said.

Wearing a face mask will be compulsory for all visitors aged at least 11, and the top level - which is much smaller than the other two - will remain closed for now.

The French government has eased lockdown measures from mid-May.

The Palace of Versailles reopened on 6 June while the Louvre museum will welcome back visitors from 6 July.
