Louvre and Grand Palais among French museums closed due to nationwide strikes

On Thursday, September 18, several major French museums and cultural venues closed due to a one-day strike against budget austerity. Affected institutions include the Musée du Louvre, Château de Versailles, Grand Palais, Musée d’Orsay (where visitors were allowed in freely), Arc de Triomphe, Eiffel Tower, Panthéon, and Musée Picasso. The strike, supported by the CGT union, also led to closures at dozens of other monuments and institutions across the country, with demonstrators protesting outside the office of Culture Minister Rachida Dati. Separately, the Musée de la Tapisserie de Bayeux is closed for two years for renovations, and the planned loan of the Bayeux Tapestry to the British Museum has been postponed due to the strikes, raising concerns about the embroidery's fragility.

Tens of thousands sign petition to stop loan of ‘extremely fragile’ Bayeux Tapestry to UK

Nearly 50,000 people have signed a petition to block the loan of the Bayeux Tapestry to the British Museum, citing warnings from textile restorers that moving the 1,000-year-old embroidered linen could cause irreparable damage. The petition, launched by art historian Didier Rykner, opposes the planned exhibition in London from September 2026 to July 2027, which coincides with the closure of the Bayeux Tapestry Museum in Normandy for renovations. The loan was announced in July by French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Prominent French cultural figures, including former museum director Isabelle Attard, have voiced strong concerns, and Rykner hopes to ally with British opponents of the exchange, which would also send Anglo-Saxon and Medieval treasures from the British Museum to France.
