Louvre Reopens After Staff End Walkout With Strike Notice Still in Place

Unions report insufficient progress in talks, preserving the option to strike.

Overview

  • The museum said it reopened “normally” on Friday, December 19, after employees voted in a general assembly to halt the walkout.
  • Workers had mobilized since Monday to press for better working conditions.
  • Staff kept their official strike notice because negotiations have not delivered sufficient advances, according to CGT and CFDT.
  • The Louvre was entirely closed on Monday and had only partially opened some spaces in the days that followed.
  • Both the unions and museum management jointly reported the reopening and the ongoing state of negotiations.
