Just days after opening its first retail store in Germany, Apple is set Dec. 13 to begin moving into its first store in France, located near the Louvre Museum.

Apple will move into a 7,700-square foot two-level store previously occupied by Résonances, a retailer that’s moving elsewhere in the underground shopping mall Carrousel du Louvre.

As part of the makeover, Apple first retail store in France will include a glass staircase that connects the two levels, according to Apple Insider.

The new store should open to the public by Fall 2009. Apple’s retail presence in France comes two years after company CEO Steve Jobs predicted a 2007 ribbon-cutting.
