Parisians 'Run in the Louvre' as Olympic Games near
STORY: Participants took part in four 10-minute sessions of various disciplines, in four emblematic rooms of the museum.
The project is part of the Cultural Olympiad program developed by Paris 2024 to both promote and combine sports and culture.
This sporting visit, imagined by French choreographer Mehdi Kerkouche, takes place from 8 to 9 a.m., before the museum opens to the general public, and lasts one hour. Sixteen sessions, each welcoming around 30 participants, are planned until May 31.
The Louvre Museum is the largest museum in the world and also the most visited, with 30,000 visitors per day and nearly 10 million visitors per year.
