Paris, France 🇫🇷
Designed by the architect Hector Lefuel, the Mollien Staircase at the Louvre Museum features a grand and sweeping double-helix structure that epitomizes the elegance and sophistication of 19th-century French architecture. The staircase is part of the Louvre's Richelieu Wing, added during the museum's major expansion in the 1850s under Napoleon III, reflecting a significant period of transformation for the museum. As a prominent feature within one of the world's most famous museums, the Mollien Staircase provides a dramatic and memorable ascent for visitors heading towards the Denon Wing, home to masterpieces such as the Mona Lisa and the Winged Victory of Samothrace.
