The Louvre Museum in Paris is primarily structured as a combination of historic and modern architectural styles. Its core is a former royal palace, featuring classical Renaissance architecture, while the iconic glass pyramid entrance, designed by I.M. Pei, represents a modernist intervention. The contrast between the historic stone façade and the sleek glass structure exemplifies a harmonious blend of old and new. Overall, the Louvre's structural form reflects a rich architectural evolution over centuries.
The museum is housed in the Louvre Palace (Palais du Louvre) which began as a fortress built in the late 12th century under Philip II. The museum opened on 10 August 1793 with an exhibition of 537 paintings, the majority of the works being confiscated church and royal property. Because of structural problems with the building, the museum was closed in 1796 until 1801
