The Jewish Louvre Tour
Discover a new lens on the Louvre — a journey that merges Jewish heritage with the world’s most visited museum. On this private, two-hour tour, you’ll uncover the hidden Jewish stories woven through centuries of art, antiquity, and empire—all guided by a licensed expert who will not only skip the lines for you, but connect the dots between cultures, artifacts, and identity.
This tour is not just about seeing artworks—it’s about understanding how Jewish history has been told, hidden, and celebrated in the world of art. From ancient Mesopotamian artifacts and the oldest known mention of Israel, to Jewish representations in 19th-century Orientalist paintings, you’ll see how Jewish life, diaspora, and resilience have left a lasting impression on global culture.
Among the hidden treasures:
A Jewish wedding in Morocco by Delacroix;
Jewish Algerian women on a balcony by Chassériau;
Artifacts from Israel, Egypt, and Jordan;
Jerusalem captured through the eyes of medieval and Renaissance painters;
A rare glimpse into Jewish life during the Crusades.
Of course, we’ll also include all the Louvre classics: the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, Winged Victory, the museum’s ancient fortress remains, and more—unless you prefer an entirely Jewish-focused tour. This experience is fully customizable to your interests.
