RE: The furnace at Govăjdia (Hunedoara County, Romania), where cast iron parts were produced for the Eiffel Tower in Paris

That's quite surprising, I'd expect the French to keep everything local, especially back than. Transporting it over Europe must had cost a small fortune. Not mentioning the red tapes when crossing multiple borders.

Sort:  

From what I have read besides these cast iron pieces that were sent from Romania to Paris, I also found out that other pieces that were used for the construction of the Eiffel Tower were also sent from other parts of Romania.
Have a wonderful weekend.

Thanks, you too :)
