What to do with children at the Louvre? Activities and visits for the whole family

It's the most visited museum in the world, and we're lucky enough to be able to count it among Paris's cultural highlights: the Musée du Louvre. For families, the program is particularly diverse: we take stock before your visit.

With its all-glass pyramid in the heart of the Palais du Louvre, the eponymous museum is a behemoth of Parisian culture. Counting major works of art history among its collections - Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, the Victory of Samothrace, the Venus de Milo, and major collections from around the world - the museum is built around dozens of permanent collection galleries. In all, over 500,000 works are conserved at the Louvre.

The Louvre also offers a wide range of guided tours,creative workshops, shows and events for the whole family. Take a trip to the Studio, the children's area within the museum, or take part in one of the mediation programs.
