The great palace hosting the museums dates back to the 12th century and is in itself a true architectural lesson. From 1200 to 2011, some of the most innovative architects helped build and improve the Louvre. The palace was a political center for a long period: a royal residence, and the home of French Chiefs of State until 1870, it was a key place in the history of Paris and France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A dark fortified fortress built in the 12th century, the Palais du Louvre was the residence of King Francis I then the sumptuous palace of Louis XIV known as the Sun King. A decree from the 6 May 1791 ordered the creation of a Mus\u00e9um central des arts de la R\u00e9publique<\/em> (Republic\u2019s Central Museum of the Arts). The museum served first and foremost as a place for the training of artists as they were the only ones to have access to le Louvre during the week while the general public could only get in on sundays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1803, the museums was renamed Mus\u00e9e Napol\u00e9on<\/em> and loots from Napoleonic Wars were added to it. Only during the Third Republic did the Louvre become State Property and acquired its current \u2018National Museum\u2019 status. During the Presidency of Fran\u00e7ois Mitterrand, the Richelieu wing was given back to the museum as it previously housed the Ministry of Finances. The museum underwent significant revamping under the direction of American architect Ieoh Ming Pei. Its most significant achievement is the building of the Louvre Pyramid at the entrance of the museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
