(New York, NY) – November 5, 2025 – Discovery Channel dives deep into one of the most audacious and high-stakes crimes in modern history with its breaking news special, LOUVRE HEIST: MINUTE BY MINUTE, premiering Wednesday, November 26, 2025 at 10PM ET/PT. 

Told in real-time with gripping new details, this one-hour special reconstructs the daring robbery and jewelry heist that unfolded in broad daylight on October 19, 2025 at the world-renowned Louvre Museum in Paris, France. Exclusive witness testimony, expert forensic analysis, and detailed graphic reconstructions track the moment the thieves infiltrated the museum’s perimeter and vanished with over $100 million worth of priceless treasures.  

“This cinematic-level heist stunned the world, and we’re breaking it down minute by minute,” said Howard Lee, Chief Creative Officer of US Networks and President of Discovery Networks. “With exclusive footage and real-time storytelling, this special delivers the kind of jaw-dropping, edge-of-your-seat experience Discovery does best.” 

As investigators race to recover France’s Crown Jewels, the special explores theories about why the thieves targeted specific displays, who orchestrated this brazen operation and which fatal flaws in their plan ultimately led to their capture. 

With unprecedented access to witnesses, criminologists, former security officials, and art historians, it will be revealed how the heist was executed, why the Louvre was left so vulnerable, and whether this crime signals a new wave of art heists sweeping through Paris.
