Employees of the Louvre Museum in Paris have decided to continue their strike following a staff assembly held on the morning of December 17, 2025. The workers cited overwhelming visitor numbers coupled with staffing shortages as the main reasons behind their decision. They expressed concerns that these conditions are negatively impacting both safety and working conditions at the world’s most visited museum. Despite the strike, the museum’s management stated that the Louvre would remain partially open during the industrial action. The strike had already affected the museum’s operations earlier in the week, with a full closure on the previous day. The ongoing dispute highlights the challenges faced by cultural institutions in managing visitor demand while ensuring adequate workforce support.
