The original Eiffel Tower in Paris. This article discusses replicas and derivatives of this building.

As one of the most iconic and recognizable structures in the world, the Eiffel Tower, completed in 1889, has been the inspiration for the creation of over 50 similar towers around the world. Most are not exact replicas, though there are many that resemble it closely, while others look slightly different. The Eiffel Tower has also inspired other towers that are not close resembling replicas and therefore are not listed here, for example the Blackpool Tower.

Replicas of known height

The tower is 330 metres (1,083 ft) tall. Other Eiffel-inspired towers are listed in the table in descending order of scale and height, imperial measurements rounded to the nearest foot:
