It is no wonder that the museum receives about nine million tourists yearly, which makes it the most visited museum in the planet.\u00a0<em>Le Mus\u00e9e du Louvre<\/em>, as it is referred to in French, the Louvre Museum since the late 18<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0century has been exhibiting interesting and exciting works of art by the most celebrated names in the arts community, including Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Eug\u00e8ne Delacroix, and Michelangelo.<\/p>\n<p>A must-visit destination for art lovers globally, the Louvre Museum boasts of a permanent exhibition of 35,000 art works across 15 acres. It has other antiquities as well spanning ancient civilizations to objects owned by the French royals to depictions of various wars. The attraction of the Louvre, thus, is such that it is part of every tourist\u2019s itinerary.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Interesting Facts about Louvre Museum<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Located at the heart of the city of Paris, France, on the right-bank of the Seine, the Louvre stands as one of the largest and most famous museums in the globe. It was built initially as a fortress for King Philippe Auguste in the 12<sup>th<\/sup> century AD, and four centuries later demolished and reconstructed as a royal palace by King Francois I. The transformation of this royal residence to a museum happened when King Louis XIV decided to live in the Palace of Versailles. The Louvre opened in 1793 to the public to originally show 537 paintings collected by the royal family. Down the years, collections have increased. In the present, the Louvre Museum boasts of over 380,000 items comprising paintings, sculptures, jewelry, and other historic articles and antiquities.<\/p>\n<p>The Louvre Museum has eight departments showcasing arts and artifacts from the pre-historic times to the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The Egyptian Antiquities Department housed in the oldest Sully Wing in the ground and first floors have artifacts like <em>The Seated Scribe<\/em> sculpture, a 4,000 year old Sphinx, and various jewelry, papyrus, musical instruments etc. dating back to the Pharaonic era.<\/li>\n<li>In the Near Eastern Antiquities Department, you get transported back to the pre-Islamic times in Persia, Levant and the Mesopotamian region.<\/li>\n<li>The department showcasing Islamic Art is the most recent in the Louvre displaying items from three continents and across 13 centuries!<\/li>\n<li>The Sculpture Department has different sections including one dedicated to Michelangelo.<\/li>\n<li>The Greek, Etruscean and Roman Antiquities Department has a variety of items, including the great marble sculptures the <em>Venus de Milo<\/em> and the <em>Winged Victory of Samothrace<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>The Decorative Arts Department showcases attractive stained glass panels and <em>pietre dure<\/em> vases.<\/li>\n<li>With over 7,500 artworks, the Paintings department is probably the most loved part of the museum. It has the best of Western paintings like Leonardo da Vinci\u2019s <em>Mona Lisa<\/em> and <em>Madonna on the Rocks<\/em>, <em>Paris and Helen<\/em> and <em>The Coronation of Napoleon<\/em> by J.L. David, and Johannes Vermeer\u2019s <em>The Astronomer<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>The department for Prints and Drawings showcases a variety of materials on paper, which are so fragile that they are kept in a controlled environment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><strong>Louvre Pyramid<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Louvre Pyramid is a glass and metal pyramidal structure that serves as the entrance to the museum. It was designed by the famous architect I.M. Pei, famed for his John F. Kennedy Library in Massachusetts. This made him the first architect from outside France to work on the Louvre.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Satellite Museums<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Owing to the extreme increase of items displayed in the Louvre Museum, French officials decided on building more museums under the Louvre name. You can visit the one at Lens, in northern France (200 km from Paris). There is another Louvre coming up in Abu Dhabi that is planned to open in 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Get more information about the museum like hours, tickets &amp; more, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mapsofworld.com\/travel\/destinations\/france\/louvre-museum\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Louvre Museum<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An imposing Parisian landmark, the\u00a0Louvre Museum\u00a0exhibits some of the best art works in history, like\u00a0Mona Lisa,\u00a0Virgin of the Rocks, and\u00a0Venus de Milo.
