Good to Know: Getting There, Entrances, and Hours
The Louvre sits in central Paris on the Right Bank of the Seine, and the easiest way to arrive is the metro to Palais-Royal – Musée du Louvre on lines 1 and 7. Several bus routes stop nearby too, and the museum is an easy walk from the Tuileries Garden and other central sights. Your guide meets the group at the Arc du Carrousel.
The Louvre has more than one entrance, and the one you use makes a real difference to how long you wait. The glass Pyramid in the main courtyard is the best-known entrance but also the busiest, with separate lines for ticket holders, visitors without tickets, and priority access. The Carrousel du Louvre entrance, reached through the underground shopping mall by the metro station, is open to ticket and pass holders and tends to be quieter. The Richelieu Passage is reserved for groups and members, and the Porte des Lions, for online ticket holders, is currently closed.
The museum is open every day except Tuesday. Hours run 09:00 to 18:00 on Monday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday, and extend to 09:00 to 21:00 on Wednesday and Friday. Last entry is one hour before closing, and the galleries begin clearing 30 minutes before. The Louvre also closes on January 1, May 1, and December 25; on any other public holiday it stays open unless that day falls on a Tuesday. The outdoor courtyards keep their own schedule, with the Cour Napoléon open daily 07:30 to 21:00 and the Cour Carrée 07:30 to 19:45. It's worth confirming hours ahead of time if you're planning an evening or holiday visit.
