Katharine: Tour Eiffel: Fluctuat nec mergiture
The Eiffel Tower went dark after the Paris attacks. Then other cities' landmarks
across the world were lit up in the colours of the French Tricolor. And now the
Eiffel Tower is lit again.
The words 'fluctuat nec mergitur' - the city's Latin motto, meaning 'tossed but not sunk' - were also beamed onto a section of the tower.
Many Parisians
have taken to the streets of the city, despite the curfew, to stand in
defiance against terrorism
across the world were lit up in the colours of the French Tricolor. And now the
Eiffel Tower is lit again.
The words 'fluctuat nec mergitur' - the city's Latin motto, meaning 'tossed but not sunk' - were also beamed onto a section of the tower.
