Rueda Eiffel, Ferris wheel in Sarmiento Park, Córdoba, Argentina
The Rueda Eiffel stands 27 meters tall in wrought iron, featuring a traditional wheel design that marks the skyline of Córdoba's central park.
Built in 1916 for Argentina's independence centennial in San Miguel de Tucumán, the wheel was relocated to Córdoba in 1918 for 23,000 pesos.
The structure represents early 20th-century engineering and holds significance as a monument to Argentina's industrial development during its centennial celebrations.
Located at Poeta Lugones 130 in Nueva Córdoba, the wheel now functions as a static monument following extensive reconstruction in 2001.
Despite its name suggesting involvement from Gustave Eiffel, no concrete evidence exists linking the French engineer to this structure's design or construction.
