Is that why a bunch of the Pantheon was closed when I was there June 18th? I was going to visit but a lot wasn't available for, I thought it said, construction. I didn't have a museum pass on my last day in Paris and the admission seemed too steep to only see part.

That’s too bad, Brad. It’s open and free this week for those in Oaris.
