Thieves stole nine priceless 19th-century royal jewels from Paris’s Louvre in a swift daylight heist.
On October 19, 2025, thieves stole nine priceless 19th-century royal jewels from Paris’s Louvre Museum during a daylight heist, breaching the Apollo Gallery using a truck-mounted ladder and cutting tools.
The suspects, believed to be a well-organized group possibly foreign, fled on motorbikes after stealing items including a damaged crown once worn by Empress Eugénie, a sapphire tiara, and a necklace from Napoleon’s wife.
The theft, lasting under seven minutes, prompted the museum to close and sparked national outrage, with officials calling it a major security failure.
The French government has launched a 60-member investigation, and the stolen items, described as historically invaluable, remain missing.
