French President Emmanuel Macron said on Tuesday that non-EU visitors will pay a higher entrance fee to visit the Louvre, the world's most-visited museum, which is plagued by overcrowding and outdated facilities. During a visit to the Paris museum, he also said Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa painting will have a dedicated space in the Louvre. Macron's announcement comes after Louvre President Laurence des Cars last week warned that the centuries-old building was in a dire state, and raised the alarm over water leaks, failing infrastructures and temperature swings which endanger the conservation of works of art.
