Louvre Part 13: The moats

As some of you might know, the Louvre has quite the history. It started out as a fortress, then made it's way up to being a royal residence, and now it houses one of the world's biggest art collection. One of it's first duties, however, was to be a fortress, so, as any good fortress did, it had moats. They were dug out a while back, and now you can walk beside them.
