Things to do at Louvre Museum
1 experience · free cancellation on mostAbout Louvre Museum
From the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo to the Winged Victory of Samothrace, the Louvre holds eight millennia of art across the wings of a former royal palace around I. M. Pei's glass pyramid.
It's vast — pick two or three wings rather than trying to see everything.
Know before you go
- Timed entry — reserve a slot even with a museum pass
- Use the Carrousel underground entrance to skip the pyramid queue
- The Mona Lisa room gets packed — go in the first or last hour
- Large luggage isn't allowed; lockers are available for small bags
