The world's biggest landmarks can be brought to your own home in plastic bricks. The tallest Lego set to date is the Eiffel Tower, which is 149 cm tall when fully built. It joins the pantheon of legendary hallmarks of human history such as the Titanic, the Roman Colosseum, and the Atari 2600. The Lego Eiffel Tower will be available in Lego stores and on its website.

The tallest Lego set so far is the Eiffel Tower, but it is not the biggest in terms of bricks. The design allows you to separate it into four sections so you don't have to worry about moving it.

The Eiffel Tower is five feet of wonder.

The tower has a green space at its base, observation decks, elevators, and an office at the top. You have to whisper "C'est magnifique" when you plant the French flag at its highest point. I think that is in the instructions.

I can say with certainty that assembling this many gray and silver bricks will be a time-Consuming project. It is cheaper than a trip to France, and you will always have a five-foot architectural wonder in your home until it is time to move.

I, too, would happily stare upon it and ponder, “Okay great, now what?”

The partially disassembled sections are shown in the top picture. The green space at the bottom will require your own minifigs. There would be a lot of people there. The image is of Lego.
