Located within the grand Louvre Palace by the River Seine in the romantic city’s heart, the museum was originally built as a castle in the 12th-13th century under Philip II. In 1546, it became the main residence of the French monarchy, and the first time it became a place of the display was when Louis XIV shifted his home to Versailles and started using this palace for his Roman and Greek art collections in 1682. It is after the French Revolution that the Louvre Museum history took a turn, as it was opened as a museum in 1793 with 537 paintings. Over the years, the collection has only been enriched, with Napoleon adding a lion’s share to the display.

The collection of Louvre artworks is divided into eight curatorial categories – Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Islamic, Etruscan, Near Eastern, Paintings, Prints, Sculpture, Decorative Arts, and Drawings.
