卢浮宫十亿欧元翻修计划:馆长称四分之三资金将来自门票收入

卢浮宫博物馆馆长克里斯托夫·勒里博10月16日在法国国际广播电台(France Inter)表示,作为「卢浮宫新文艺复兴」大规模翻修计划的一部分,约四分之三的工程资金将来自博物馆的门票收入。这项由总统马克龙于2025年宣布的翻修计划估算耗资10亿欧元,内容包括建筑修缮、新建入口,以及为《蒙娜丽莎》新设一间展厅。
勒里博说,阿联酋将为该项目出资3亿欧元,另有3.6亿欧元尚需向赞助人筹集。他表示:「这在法国是前所未有的挑战规模。」他同时强调:「如果我们希望卢浮宫继续是世界上最美、最大的博物馆,这些工程是必要的。」
按计划,《蒙娜丽莎》的新展厅将位于方庭(Cour Carrée)之下。勒里博指出,目前陈列这幅名作的展厅经常被游客挤满,许多来看《蒙娜丽莎》的人是第一次走进博物馆,「这次与杰作的相遇不应该令人失望」。
勒里博发表上述谈话,正值卢浮宫阿波罗长廊那起轰动性的珠宝失窃案一周年之际。那起案件以及馆舍老化问题,使这座年接待约900万游客的博物馆的安保与基础设施状况持续受到关注。(GSM 据法国国际广播电台及法国媒体报道)
Louvre's €1 Billion Renovation to Be Financed Three-Quarters by Ticket Sales
Three quarters of the renovation work planned under the Louvre's vast "New Renaissance" overhaul will be financed by the museum's own ticket sales, its president and director Christophe Leribault said on France Inter on Friday, October 16. The renovation plan, announced in 2025 by President Emmanuel Macron, is estimated at one billion euros and provides for work on the building, a new entrance and a new room dedicated to the Mona Lisa.
Leribault said the United Arab Emirates will contribute 300 million euros to the project, while 360 million euros remain to be found from patrons. "It's huge — in France we've never had a challenge of this level," he said, adding: "This is necessary work if we want the Louvre to remain the most beautiful and largest museum in the world."
The new Mona Lisa room will be located under the Cour Carrée. Leribault noted that the current gallery is too often stormed by visitors, many of whom have never visited a museum before. His remarks came a year after the spectacular theft in the Apollo Gallery, which put the museum's security and ageing infrastructure under sustained scrutiny.
