Answer 1

Well for one it has one of the greatest art collections in the world. Above and beyond that, it is really significant to the history of France. It started as a fortress and then was the official royal residence for the King of France.

Answer 2

First, it has some of the most famous art works in the Western world, including both paintings and sculptures. Some of the stuff there is really old. In fact, I think it really lacks some more recent (<200 years old) stuff. Second, it is HUGE. There is really no way to see the entire thing in a day if you are trying to actually see it all instead of just running through like a tourist. The Louvre is the most famous mueseum in a city that has art mueseums on every corner.
