The Louvre Museum, the largest and most visited in the world, will reopen on Monday on record, a little, with all possible precautions and without the many tourists, Asian and American, usual in this season.
The crisis caused by the coronavirus has already caused “more than 40 million euros in losses” at the Louvre, announced its president-director Jean-Luc Martinez, who is expected to face three years of financial difficulties and calls for the reactivation of the ” cultural democratization” in the sense that youth and the public are more modest, especially in Ile-de-France.

70% of the public institution, or 45,000 m2, will be available. Traffic areas, as well as antiquities, including Egyptian, will be open to the public. The most complex places to manage will remain closed until further notice. “We are losing 80% of our audience. 75% of our visitors are of foreign origin. We will have a maximum of 20-30% of our audience in the summer of 2019, between 4,000 and 10,000 daily visitors” this summer, estimated Jean-Luc Martinez at last week’s press conference.

Booking dates are open from June 15 online and remain the preferred route to access the Louvre, but it will be possible to try your luck getting to the site if there are still spaces available. On June 24, the last figure recorded was 12,000 reservations, the majority in the month of July.
Round parking lot in front of Mona Lisa
visitors will have to bring their own masks, there will be no changing rooms or supplies, and the course will be back-to-back darts, and all results will be final. In front of the Mona Lisa, where tourists from all over the world come to take “selfies”, a circular parking lot is attached to the ground to avoid crowds.
To evoke the crowd, free visits to the “mini-discovery” will be organized without reservation, as well as guided tours for young people. More than three months of closure was an opportunity for the communication teams to develop a virtual museum online, with many movies, podcasts, games, all very popular. With the hope that this online visit will encourage the general public, especially young people, to walk through the rooms, enjoying the relative peace conducive to contemplation.

The museum is working with the Ministry of Culture on a “transformation plan,” the president said, without elaborating. “We have to be there in 2023-2024 and prepare for the Olympic Games. Open more hours, more rooms, this is a bet in 2024,” he said.
