The Louvre museum is initiating a transformative project called the "New Renaissance of the Louvre" aimed at modernizing the historic institution while preserving its charm. Key elements include creating a new dedicated space for the Mona Lisa, a new main entrance determined by an architecture competition, improved visitor flow through expanded underground spaces, and the restoration of gardens. Accessibility, security, and conservation efforts will be enhanced, and a new tiered pricing system will follow in 2026. This renovation aims to maintain the Louvre's status as a world-class cultural landmark.
‘People have just been coming to check their 'I paid a ticket to the Louvre' boxes and leave. With the Mona Lisa in her own space, they can appreciate her.’
‘The new entrance and restructuring aim to enhance security, accessibility, and overall visitor experience while maintaining the historic charm of the museum.’
