The Louvre in Paris is set for significant renovations to address overcrowding and deterioration, including a special exhibition space for the Mona Lisa, providing independent access for visitors. French President Emmanuel Macron announced the project, which aims to enhance the museum experience without burdening taxpayers, funding through museum revenue. Concerns over damage, including leaks and temperature fluctuations, prompted the Louvre director's warnings about the need for revitalization. The project includes a new entrance slated for 2031, aimed at improving traffic flow while keeping the museum open during renovations.
"As part of a big renovation of the Louvre, the Mona Lisa will be installed in a special exhibition space, accessible independently of the rest of the museum."
"The renovation will also include a new entrance, to open by 2031, to alleviate congestion at the Pyramid, enhancing visitor access and experience."
