The Mona Lisa, by Leonardo Da Vinci, is on display at the Louvre museum in Paris.
The Louvre is one of the most-visited art museums in the world. The museum is housed in the Louvre Palace, which began as a fortress built in the late 12th century under Philip II. Remnants of the fortress are visible in the basement of the museum. The building was extended many times to form the present-day Louvre Palace.
French royalty once lived in the Louvre Palace, until in 1682, Louis XIV chose the Palace of Versailles for his household. He left the Louvre primarily as a place to display the royal collection of antique sculpture. In 1692, the building was occupied by the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles Lettres and the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture. The Académie remained at the Louvre for 100 years. During the French Revolution, the National Assembly decreed that the Louvre should be used as a museum, to display the nation’s masterpieces. [Map] [Wiki]
