infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Between 300 and 400 works&#8221; were affected by the leak discovered on November 26, said the museum&#8217;s deputy administrator Francis Steinbock, describing them as &#8220;Egyptology journals&#8221; and &#8220;scientific documentation&#8221; used by researchers.<\/p>\n<p> The damaged items date from the late 19th and early 20th centuries and are &#8220;extremely useful&#8221; but are &#8220;by no means unique,&#8221; Steinbock added.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;No heritage artefacts have been affected by this damage,&#8221; he said, adding: &#8220;At this stage, we have no irreparable and definitive losses in these collections.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span

million<\/a><\/span> in just seven minutes before fleeing on scooters, sparking debate over the museum&#8217;s ageing infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>At least five people have been arrested over the heist, but none of the jewels have been recovered. <\/p>\n<p>The Louvre&#8217;s most senior officer announced 20 <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/louvre-heist-museum-announces-emergency-measures-to-boost-security\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">&#8220;emergency measures&#8221; had been implemented<\/a><\/span> in November to bolster security at the sprawling facility, but provided little detail as to what they were.<\/p>\n<p> The Louvre said there would be an internal investigation into the November leak, which was caused by the accidental opening of a valve in the heating and ventilation system that led to water seeping through the ceiling of the Mollien wing, where the books were stored.<\/p>\n<p> The &#8220;completely obsolete&#8221; system has been shut down for months and is due to be replaced from September 2026, the museum administrator added.<\/p>\n<p> As for the works, they will &#8220;be dried, sent to a bookbinder to be restored, and then returned to the shelves,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p> In late November, the Louvre said it would raise ticket prices for most non-EU visitors, meaning U.S., British and Chinese tourists among others will have to pay 32 euros (about $37) to get in.<\/p>\n<p> The museum told AFP the 45% price hike aims to boost annual revenues by up to $23 million to fund structural improvements at the cultural institution.<\/p>\n<p> The Louvre is the world&#8217;s most-visited museum, welcoming 8.7 million visitors in 2024, 69% of them from abroad.<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list
