Are any of the main attractions in Paris under maintenance?

Hi

From previous travels I know that there is always a chance that main attractions might be under maintenance. I still remember coming to Milano and finding the entire front of the Duomo covered. Or coming to Paris a few years ago and finding parts of Notre Dame covered. I have heard that there is some work taking place at Versailles but what about the other main attraction such as Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame, Sacre-Coeur, Louvre, Sainte Chapelle, Pompidou etc. I guess there is not much you can do about it but it helps being prepared for the %26quot;shock%26quot; Wink

The Hall of Mirrors at Versailles is still under renovation.

|||

For Notre Dame, the good news is that all the scaffolding came down last month and she%26#39;s looking very beautiful. The restoration is pretty impressive.

|||

the Musée L%26#39;Orangerie (where Monet%26#39;s six foot Waterlilies panels are displayed) has been closed for an eon but is allegedly scheduled to open in May of this year.

|||

There are ALWAYS some galleries and collections within the Musée du Louvre that are temporarily closed for work...but you can usually find out which and when throgh the %26#39;..SCHEDULE of CLOSURES..%26#39;page at the Louvre%26#39;s main web site--

Didn%26#39;t the hall of mirrors just recently reopen?

|||

only the half closed has reopened, and in exchange the other half is now closed

The lower chapel of Sainte Chapelle is under renovation, but work doesn%26#39;t interfere with viewing the amazing stained glass upstairs.
