Thieves stole priceless Crown Jewels from Paris's Louvre in a 7-minute heist on October 19, 2025.
On October 19, 2025, thieves stole jewels of "inestimable" historical value from the Louvre Museum in Paris during a seven-minute heist.
Using a basket lift and exploiting ongoing construction, they forced open a window on the Seine-facing facade, entered the Galerie d’Apollon, and smashed display cases housing pieces from the French Crown Jewels, including items from Napoleon and Empress Eugénie’s collections.
The museum closed for the day, police sealed the area, and forensic teams began assessing the damage.
One stolen item, possibly Eugénie’s crown, was found broken outside.
No injuries were reported, and authorities are investigating, with no arrests made.
The incident has sparked global concern over museum security.
