Eiffel Tower Closed Monday after Euro 2016 Clashes
The Eiffel Tower was closed to the public on Monday after clashes between fans and police at the Parisian landmark during the Euro 2016 final, its operator said.
The Eiffel Tower management said the tower could "not be opened in the proper security conditions" after the clashes in which youths set alight rubbish bins, a car and a scooter before being dispersed by police with tear gas and water cannon.
