The Louvre museum

The Louvre Museum, as much a symbol of the city as the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral, is the largest art museum in the world. Located in the Louvre Palace, this museum is located on the banks of the River Seine, like the most important buildings in the city, and has a very wide range of collections, ranging from prehistoric times to the 21st century. There's a very wide range of collections, dating back over a century.

With more than 30,000 artifacts on display, the museum is best known for its 20th-century Mona Lisa with the Venus de Milo and the Marly Horses. The Mona Lisa, which became famous in the 20th century, is remarkable. This museum, which houses important works by important craftsmen, is no longer a museum that can be visited in detail in a day. It takes weeks of research to examine all the collections.

But when it comes to the museum building, the purpose of the building is completely different. Built by Philippe Auguste as a defense against Viking raids, this museum was later used as a palace for the royal family until the present day.
