The museum first opened on August 10, 1793, exhibiting just 537 paintings. Despite closing in 1796 due to structural problems, it reopened in 1801 as the Musée Napoléon with a larger collection. 

The collection has since gained 20,000 works. Now, there are 8 departments: Egyptian Antiquities; Near Eastern Antiquities; Greek, Etruscan, and Roman Antiquities; Islamic Art; Sculpture; Decorative Arts; Paintings; and Prints and Drawings.

Chef Didier and our translator were wonderful. Chef was a master of his craft. He was able to give us in-depth knowledge but was still approachable for beginners. The class was hands-on (my two children ages 9 and 11 loved it!) and lots of fun. Would definitely recommend this experience for anyone (families, couples, individuals).

Purchasing the online timed ticket to the Louvre was a streamlined and efficient process. The lines are organized according to the time of your tour. Employees are at each umbrella to help you figure out which of the lines to join. The line seemed very long but it moved very quickly as did the security check. Once inside, you go to the Information desk to grab a map, and if you want to rent an audio guide, you need to buy a ticket and then proceed to another location to get the guide. I spent four hours in the museum and I could have spent four days, at least. The employees at the museum are very kind and helpful. Have some idea of what you want to see before you go. Obviously, there was a long line to see the Mona Lisa, a small painting behind glass. There are other paintings by Da Vinci well worth seeing. I would recommend using Get Your Guide. They provide excellent service and their instructions after purchasing an online ticket are clear.

It was good. I have a feeling we were lied to with not being able to access the summit we paid for. They said the lift was broken, but it seemed to be working for Jennifer Anniston and Adam Sandler fine enough. Still, at the end of the day, it was the Eiffel Tower. It was beautiful, and the view was stunning. I did receive a refund for the difference in the summit and second level.
