Attention history and virtual reality enthusiasts! Viality Tour invites you to discover its new virtual reality experience, Le Louvre à travers l'histoire, starting April 5, 2025. An immersive outdoor guided tour in VR, immersing you in the evolution of the most emblematic of Parisian monuments, from the 13th to the 19th century.
This new itinerary, developed over a period of more than two years, invites you to discover the metamorphoses of the Louvre and its surroundings in different eras. The concept? A historical walk accompanied by a guide, punctuated by stops where you don a VR headset to experience historical reconstructions in 360°, directly from the places where they took place.
The starting point is in front of the Louvre's colonnade, where the guide equips you for the journey. At each stop, you'll be invited to experience scenes from the past: the medieval Louvre, the Palais des Tuileries, the transformation of the palace into a museum, the surrounding streets at different times... A play of superimpositions between past and present that gives a whole new reading of the place.
The sounds of Paris in days gone by, the silhouettes of the people or the royal court, the buildings of another era... It's all there, carefully modeled to immerse you in a striking historical atmosphere. The guide stays by your side to comment on the environment, describe what you're seeing, and enrich your immersion with historical anecdotes and architectural landmarks.
Accessible from the age of 8, this tour is ideal for a family outing, a cultural activity with friends or even an original rendezvous as a couple. It will appeal to history buffs, technology enthusiasts and those who simply want to experience Paris differently.
This immersive experience lets you compare the past and present from a single geographical point. You'll never look at the Louvre in the same way again after seeing it as it was centuries ago. It's a unique opportunity to combine culture, innovation and contemplation, in an exceptional heritage setting.
So, are you ready to travel back in time to the heart of historic Paris? The Louvre's colonnade is waiting for you to relive its centuries of transformations. An experience combining living heritage, augmented reality and urban exploration.
