আইফেল টাওয়ার ফরাসি প্রকৌশলী গুস্তাভ আইফেলের নামানুসারে নামকরণ করা হয়েছে, যিনি এই টাওয়ারটি ডিজাইন করেছিলেন। তিনি ১৮৩২ সালে এক সমৃদ্ধ পরিবারে জন্মগ্রহণ করেন। তিনি প্যারিসের সেন্ট্রাল স্কুল অফ ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং থেকে স্নাতক সম্পন্ন করেন এবং রেলওয়ে নির্মাণ কোম্পানিতে কাজ শুরু করেন। তার মা মনে করতেন যে, তিনি জীবনে তেমন কিছু করতে পারবেন না। কিন্তু গুস্তাভ তার মাকে আশ্বস্ত করে বলেছিলেন, "ধৈর্য ধরো মা, আমার কিছু আইডিয়া আছে।"

বহু বছর ধরে গুস্তাভ একের পর এক পরিকল্পনা তৈরি করেন কারখানা, স্টেশন এবং বিশাল স্থাপনার জন্য। পুরো ইউরোপ জুড়ে প্রকৌশলীরা তার ডিজাইন অনুকরণ করছিল। ১৮৮০-এর দশকের মাঝামাঝি সময়ে, ফরাসি শিল্পপতিদের একটি দল প্যারিসে একটি বিশ্বমেলা আয়োজনের জন্য সরকারের অনুমোদন লাভ করে। গুস্তাভ সেই মেলার প্রতীক হিসেবে লোহার তৈরি ৯৮ মিটার উঁচু একটি টাওয়ার নির্মাণের প্রস্তাব দেন।

১৮৮৭ সালের জানুয়ারিতে টাওয়ারটির নির্মাণকাজ শুরু হয়। গুস্তাভের তত্ত্বাবধানে ৪০ জন প্রকৌশলী এবং ডিজাইনার দুই বছর ধরে কাজ করেন। অবশেষে ১৮৮৯ সালের মার্চ মাসে টাওয়ারটির নির্মাণ সম্পন্ন হয়। এটি মানুষের তৈরি সর্বোচ্চ লোহার কাঠামো। এর আগে এমন কোনো কাঠামো তৈরি করা হয়নি। এটি বিশ্বের বিস্ময়গুলোর মধ্যে অন্যতম বলে বিবেচিত হয়।
