Thieves have stolen “priceless” jewelry from the Louvre in Paris, the world’s most-visited museum, in an audacious seven-minute raid on Sunday, the French interior minister has said.
Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez told radio station France Inter: “A major robbery took place this morning in the Apollo Room. Individuals entered the Louvre Museum from outside, using a external freight elevator that was positioned on a truck.”
The Apollo Room houses the French Crown Jewels, as well as treasures including Louis XIV’s hardstone vessel collection.
Lots of risk for no financial gain, they should have taken something worth money at least.
Why do you think those objects have no value? These people are clearly very experienced, probably they already had a buyer before the heist. This stuff is sold for lots of money.
If they had value, they would be “priceful” but the article clearly states the opposite.
I’m sure you can find a little bit of value out of a gold crown with 1300 diamonds. The article never says the stolen items have no value, it says they are priceless, as such of a high value which can not be quantified. I guess it is the word “priceless” you’re focusing on.
