The strike has cooled down

Everything seems to go back to normal, well at least for now. Enjoy your visit to the musuems before the Frenchies go on strike again ^^

Strike at the museum

French workers have been on strike at several museums and monuments like the Louvre, Musée d'Orsay, Chateau de Versailles since last Wednesday the 2nd of December. They are either closed for the entire day or open late in the morning. This strike is due to the change of the retirement plan. Visitors should try to enter the museum late in the morning (after 11am) or go to another museum instead. As far as the working hours of the Louvre, it should go back to normal starting from tomorrow the 10th; however, the workers might try to slow down visitor flow at the entrance. That means instead of taking 5 mins to go through the security check, it might now take 30mins. So be aware!! And above all, be patient!!
