Overview
- The Louvre closed the nine-room Galerie Campana as a precaution following a technical study that recommended a full shutdown.
- The decision removes public access to the Campana collection of Greek ceramics housed in the space.
- Sixty-five staff members working in offices above the gallery are being relocated as part of the safety measures.
- The gallery had only reopened in 2023 after roughly two years of earlier work focused on updating its presentation.
- Officials place the move within the Louvre Nouvelle Renaissance modernization program, as attention to the museum has intensified after last month’s crown-jewels theft in a different wing on the same floor.
