Useful tips to help you get your bearings
When you visit the Louvre, you are embarking on a truly authentic journey into history, crossing different eras and cultures in a vast space that houses more than 35,000 items. The collections are sub-divided into eight departments: Eastern antiquities, Egyptian antiquities, Greek, Etruscan and Roman antiquities. Islamic art, sculptures, art works, drawings and graphic art. In order to enable visitors to the museum to move around relatively easily, we receommend that you pick up one of the maps with a plan of the building (available at the information desks) to take with you as this will help you to get your bearings and make moving from one collection to another quite easy. In order to make the visit even more simple: each department is represented by a different colour and the rooms are numbered. Another useful piece of advice when it comes to finding your way around is to down-load the Museum App which costs just €5.00. The App will guide you around the interior of the building very easily which means you don't waste your time trying to work out where you want to go next.
