Archibald, a curious little boy with a passion for architecture, accompanies children from age seven years and up in learning about this symbolic contemporary building. From Philippe Auguste to President Mitterrand, the Louvre took eight centuries to complete. Beneath an astonishing apparent unity, children will discover the diversity of architectural styles over the centuries. A grand design dreamed of by Henri IV and realized by Napoleon III, the Louvre is in fact a unique example of a building where the remains of a fortified castle coexists alongside Renaissance, classical and neoclassical elements, and an extremely audacious transparent pyramid built by Ieoh Ming Pei.
