The Olympic torch for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games was unveiled Tuesday along the banks of the River Seine, as France marks one year until the opening ceremonies.

The design of the Paris 2024 torch imitates the reflection of the Eiffel Tower on the surface of the Seine and conveys peaceful energy, its designer Mathieu Lehanneur said.

Made with lightweight polished steel and with a champagne colour, the torch’s lower half features a relief pattern that mimics the movement of the Seine, along which the opening ceremony will be held.

Once lit in Ancient Olympia, Greece, the flame will be transported by boat to the southern French city of Marseille, where the torch relay will begin on May 8, 2024.
