The most visited museum in the world, the Louvre is located in the heart of Paris in the 1st arrondissement. Its collections, organized into eight departments, cover a chronology dating back to Antiquity. The iconic glass pyramid, which sits in the middle of the square, makes it all the more recognizable.

The Louvre Pyramid is the glass and metal structure located in the Cour Napoléon, the central courtyard of the Louvre Museum in Paris. It serves as the main entrance to the museum and is one of the most photographed contemporary architectural works in the world.

The glass pyramid in the Louvre's courtyard is now one of the city's most important landmarks!

At 21.64 meters high and 35.42 meters wide, it has the same proportions as the Pyramid of Giza.

This is by no means a coincidence, but was planned precisely this way by Mitterrand and the architect I.M. Pei.
