Louvre Abu Dhabi will complete one GLORIOUS year tomorrow, and it has now announced that it welcomed more than ONE million visitors in its first year.<\/p>\n

That’s a remarkable accomplishment and establishes the museum as one of the leading cultural institutions on a global platform.<\/p>\n

Louvre has become a favourite destination in Abu Dhabi for both residents and tourists alike<\/h3>\n

Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak, Chairman, Department of Culture and Tourism \u2013 Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi) released a statement on the occasion of its anniversary:<\/p>\n

\n

“Louvre Abu Dhabi has become an icon and a favourite destination in Abu Dhabi both for our local communities and visitors to the city. Our strong collaboration with our French and regional partners supports the museum\u2019s mission to tell universal stories and we thank them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yet our greatest success, 10 years in the making, is the next generation of Emirati museum professionals who are trained to the highest standard in the cultural sector and are leaders in their field.<\/p>\n

Louvre Abu Dhabi\u2019s vision is to celebrate cross-cultural connections that transcend geographies and civilisations, to see humanity in a new light. The diversity of Louvre Abu Dhabi\u2019s audiences not only reflects Abu Dhabi\u2019s multicultural society, but also illustrates how its ambition and universal narrative, which aim to create bridges between cultures and nurture dialogue between communities, appeal to many, from seasoned art enthusiasts to younger audiences and families.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The museum has presented four international exhibitions ever since it opened back in November 2017<\/h3>\n

1.From One Louvre to Another: Opening a museum for Everyone
2.Globes: Visions of the World
3.Japanese Connections: The Birth of Modern D\u00e9cor
4. Roads of Arabia: Archaeological Treasures of Saudi Arabia<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
