The Minister of Culture and mayor of the 7th arrondissement believes that simply registering them as historical monuments is not enough.
A rare defector from the Attal government to the Barnier government, Rachida Dati also returned to the Council of Paris, as mayor of the 7th arrondissement. It is with this double hat that she intervened once again in the debate on the management and maintenance of the Eiffel Tower. And in particular on the question of its classification as a historical monument, a debate over which Anne Hidalgo and Rachida Dati have been crossing swords since the beginning of the year.

Ms. Hidalgo’s opposition to classification is incomprehensible. There is a fear that you will make it personal with me.
Rachida Dati, Le Parisien
« Unfortunately, our capital stands out from other large French cities due to the low number of protected and classified places. The Eiffel Tower is an emblematic case. : it is only “registered” and not “classified” as a historical monument, while only classification would really protect it », explains in the columns of Parisian . « Ms. Hidalgo’s opposition to classification is incomprehensible. It is to be feared that he will make it personal with me, which I regret.continues the minister. The regional prefect sent a letter to Anne Hidalgo to this effect. In case of refusal on your part, I will make the decision on automatic classification.»
The classification would imply greater surveillance of the tower, property of the City, by the department of cultural affairs of the Île-de-France, a body dependent on the State. Maintenance work should therefore be subsidized by the Ministry (up to 50%). Until then, the state has contributed very little to the maintenance of the famous iron lady, which is Anne Hidalgo’s main argument in the case.
