The Louvre museum in Paris reopened on Wednesday, three days after thieves made off with historic royal jeweler worth an estimated 88 million euros ($102 million).
Live images on Reuters TV showed visitors walking through the museum's entry gates for the first time since the brash heist, which made headlines worldwide.
On Sunday morning, the thieves broke into the Louvre using a crane to smash an upstairs window, then stole priceless objects from an area that houses the French crown jewels before escaping on motorbikes.
The museum, which shut after the robbery on Sunday morning, remained closed.
