Musee de Louvre (PROSE: Meet Rose) commonly called just the Louvre, (TV: City of Death, PROSE: City of Death, AUDIO: The Church and the Crown) was known as one of the greatest art galleries in the universe. It was located in Paris, and it became a museum in 1793, but prior to that, it had been an official residence of the French monarchy.

(TV: City of Death) Lionel Harding visited it at least once, where he put up a fight to see the Mona Lisa longer than the twenty seconds allowed for each viewing as he loved the painting.
