Why start at Louvre?
Louvre-Rivoli is a compact Line 1 stop for travelers who want the museum district without starting inside the main Louvre crowds. From here, you can approach the palace façades, the Seine, luxury arcades and contemporary shopping in a logical, street-level sequence.
Musée du Louvre
The world-famous museum is a short walk away, best planned with a timed ticket and a focused route.
Palais du Louvre
The palace courtyards offer grand architecture even if you are not entering the museum.
Bourse de Commerce
The Pinault Collection brings contemporary art into a circular former commodities exchange nearby.
La Samaritaine
This restored department store is ideal for Art Nouveau details, shopping and a polished café break.
Practical tip: Exit toward Rue de Rivoli and Rue de l’Amiral-de-Coligny for the quickest walk to the Louvre courtyards.
Use the 7-day Paris Pass to pair Louvre-Rivoli with the Tuileries, Palais Royal and Seine crossings.
