Description
About this set
LEGO Architecture Paris gathers the city’s best known sights onto one long base. You’ll build the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre, the Grand Palais and Tour Montparnasse, with the Champs-Elysées running through the scene. Patches of grass and trees soften things up, and the tiled base carries a Paris nameplate. Each structure is scaled against the others.
At 649 pieces and rated 12+, it suits adult builders, travelers and design fans who want a calm project and a good looking display piece. It isn’t really meant as a toy. The set is retired now, so new sealed boxes are getting scarcer.
Highlights
- Eiffel Tower, Louvre and Arc de Triomphe in one skyline
- Grand Palais, Tour Montparnasse and the Champs-Elysées
- Grass and tree details along the base
- 4×32 tiled base with a Paris nameplate
- Booklet on each building’s history and designer
