Much More Than the Mona Lisa

Explore centuries of art and history in one of the world's most important museums, housed in the former royal palace of the Louvre.

Masterpieces, grand galleries, and thousands of years of history

Although Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa is its most famous work, the Louvre houses much more. During the visit, you can discover iconic pieces like the Venus de Milo, the Winged Victory of Samothrace, The Wedding at Cana, or The Raft of the Medusa, as well as works by artists like Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Delacroix, and Caravaggio.

The tour traverses ancient palace rooms, monumental galleries, and collections dedicated to very different civilizations and periods, from Antiquity to great masters of European painting. The architecture of the old palace itself is part of the experience.

Its enormous size makes it impossible to see everything in one visit, so a well-planned route allows you to focus on the most prominent works and spaces without getting lost among its more than 400 rooms.
