Thus, on October 13, numerous disruptions are expected in rail and air transport, but also in schools, health care centers, the civil service... In Paris, thestrike could be felt in places open to the public, such as museums and monuments. Indeed, many art and cultural venues had to delay their opening this morning, or only partially open. Some, like the Eiffel Tower, are completely closed.
The Iron Lady is closing its doors to the public this Friday. In a message posted on its website, the Iron Lady says: " Due to the national strike, the Eiffel Tower is currently closed. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Access to the Parvis remains open and free of charge. Visitors with e-tickets for today are invited to check their mailboxes ".
