The Louvre has recognized that almost everyone who visits Âé¶¹APP wants to visit the museum, and it\u2019s for that reason that they have extended their opening hours into the evening two nights a week!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Keep reading to learn all of the details of the Louvre\u2019s nighttime hours, and why it\u2019s worth it to visit the museum in the evening! <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Why you should go to the Louvre<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n<p class=\"p8\"><span class=\"s1\">For those of you less than familiar with the Louvre, you may be asking yourself&#8230;&#8221;but why should I do to the museum at all?!&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p8\"><span class=\"s1\">The Louvre has a pretty <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/history-of-the-louvre-palace-before-the-art\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">interesting background story<\/a>, as it has been a part of Âé¶¹APP since 1202. The structure went from being a fortress, to a castle for the French royalty, and to finally being transformed into a museum. When it first opened, only a select few were allowed to visit the collection, but that soon changed in 1793 when it was completely opened to the public. <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13992\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/optimized-wall-monument-statue-louvre-museum-sculpture-927520-pxhere.com_.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13992\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13992\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/optimized-wall-monument-statue-louvre-museum-sculpture-927520-pxhere.com_.jpg\" alt=\"Winged Victory of Samothrace\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/optimized-wall-monument-statue-louvre-museum-sculpture-927520-pxhere.com_.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/optimized-wall-monument-statue-louvre-museum-sculpture-927520-pxhere.com_-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13992\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Winged Victory of Samothrace &#8211; pxhere<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p8\"><span class=\"s1\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/how-to-enjoy-your-louvre-museum-tour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Louvre<\/a> is home to masterpieces such as Leonardo Da Vinci\u2019s <i>Mona Lisa<\/i>, Alexandros of Antioch\u2019s <i>Venus de Milo, <\/i>Pythokritos\u2019s<i> Winged Victory of Samothrace<\/i> (that\u2019s where the brand Nike got their idea for their unmistakable logo!), and Eug\u00e8ne Delacroix\u2019s <i>Liberty Leading the People<\/i>\u2026just to name a few!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p8\"><span class=\"s1\">In addition to this, there are massive sections dedicated to Roman, Egyptian, and Greek art.

This is of course during the fall and winter months, as the sun stays out quite late in Âé¶¹APP during the summer (something that I LOVE!).<\/p>\n<p>Wednesday seems to be the best choice, as there aren&#8217;t many art enthusiasts or tourists that visit in the middle of the week. Enjoy shorter or no lines, and relax as you wander through the galleries. <em>This<\/em> is the way art is supposed to be seen!<\/p>\n<p>There is also a new initiative at the Louvre which begins in 2019: in addition to the first Sunday of the month being free, the first Saturday night of the month will now be free as well! Visit the Louvre from 6pm-9:45pm free of charge.<\/p>\n<p>Another trick to avoiding long lines at the Louvre is to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketlouvre.fr\/louvre\/b2c\/index.cfm\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">purchase your ticket online<\/a> before you go.
