These love locks are symbolic of the unending love where couples attach a lock to symbolize their love on the sides of the bridge. These locks posed safety problems because of their mass weight. In Paris, the city famous for love, sections of the bridge have already collapsed due to the weight of the padlocks. |
This week, Paris’s famous bridge closed in order to remove the love locks. A city hall campaign to save the bridges of Paris from the weight of hundreds of thousands of brass locks had failed.
