Louvre heist raises alarms over museum security

Oct 20, 2025

Sunday’s theft of royal jewels from the Louvre has reignited debate over museum security, with critics pointing to ignored staff warnings and past incidents at the same gallery. Interior Minister Laurent Nunez defended current measures and cited a renovation project to improve security, though others argue more needs to be done. The robbery, which lasted under four minutes, is believed to be the work of organized crime — part of a growing trend of professional art thefts targeting French museums.
