Louvre is collapsing, and the main cash must inject a large -scale cash to cope with the number of visitors.
Laurence DES CARs issued Stark Warning as a letter leaked to the government to increase the alarm of power crop, floods and infrastructure failures.
She has accommodated a unique approach to the gallery since 1989, and Leonardo’s Mona Lisa, who can see, can’t cope structurally, “Leonardo Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, who can see 20,000 people every day.
Emmanuel Macron, a French president, who is personally interested in the museum’s problems, will visit Louvre in speculation that he will announce a new investment plan on Tuesday.
However, his authority has been greatly reduced since the loss of the parliamentary control six months ago, and the unstable state of France, where the budget was still in conflict in 2025, is very controversial.
According to Christian Galani, a labor union of the Louvre, “Paint flaking, exhibition and storage rooms have no new signs of the decline of the building paid late to the contractor because there is no flooded power cut, power cutting, and money. It’s less than a day. “
In November 2023, a few days of floods had to be moved to Sully Wing’s temporary exhibition.
Big changes in temperature-big changes from 10c to summer 30c in winter not only cause inconvenience to employees and visitors, but also threaten the preservation of art works.
The temperature problem is the most distinct in the pyramids of architect IEOH Ming PEI. This is designed to cope with 4 million visitors per year, but today it is more than twice. About 30,000 people passed through the ticket gate every day and made the Louvre the most visited museum in the world.
In her letter, Laurence Des Cars raised the need for better toilets, cafes and rest areas. She also said, “From everyone’s point of view, Mona Lisa’s announcement is needed …”
About three -quarter of the museum visitors go to the picture of Leonardo da Vinci. But experience has been trial, and the crowd is constantly spreading through Salle des etats, observing pictures and taking pictures for 50 seconds.
“The public … there is no way to understand the work of the artist, so we question the whole mission of public services,” said Des Cars.
Among the options in consideration, a new entrance to the Louvre under the Colo Nade at the east end of the palace is opened. There is a large open space here, and the empty moat was not original, but was created in the 1960s.
Digging underground from moat and nearby nose Carrée can relieve congestion, improve facilities, and create new spaces to accommodate relocated Mona Lisa. Another option in the picture is to remove the picture from the main collection and the visitor must pay an additional fee.
Louvbling received a subsidy of £ 196 million in 2024. In 2023, there was a receipt of 111 million euros at tickets and events, and 8.3 million euros in the sponsorship contract with Louvre Abu Davi.
With more main funds, the museum is looking for more and more to corporate donors and charity who raised 8.4 million euros to save Notre Dame Cathedral after the fire.
The Minister of Culture, Rachida Dati, is also known to support the increase in admission to non -EU visitors.
