November 8th, 1793, the Louvre opens as a museum in Paris.

Known for its vast collection of master works, it stood firm and unchanged alongside other classic monuments, structures and institutions as a must-see for anyone visiting Paris.

Traditionalists called it an outrage, but inside the museum, the Mona Lisa still managed to smile.
