12 out of 15 - Mercedes-Benz Museum, Germany

Louvre has been one of the most visited museums in the world for several years. However, you can see not only the valuable historical and artistic exhibits. One of the main features of the world-famous museum is the ultramodern hydraulic elevator, which lifts visitors from the ground floor of the museum to the first floor.

The lift is especially remarkable for the unusual construction. It has no ordinary cabin, but a special open space for the passengers. During the ascent, the cylindrical elevator literally grows out of the floor. The spiral staircase surrounding its shaft makes the elevator even more impressive.

The futuristic elevator runs very quietly and absolutely quietly. The elevator can accommodate up to ten people. Thanks to the open elevator construction, you can visit the museum sheds during the journey. The elevator in Louvre is considered one of the most futuristic and unusual in the world.
