Questions & Answers about Clausurarán el museo desde mañana hasta el lunes.

Why use clausurarán instead of the more common cerrarán?
While cerrar is the general verb for "to close", clausurar means to close something officially or for a significant period. It's often used when authorities close a building for renovations, repairs, or legal reasons.
Who is the subject of clausurarán if it just translates to "They will close down"?
This is an impersonal "they." Just like in English ("They are fixing the road"), Spanish uses the third-person plural without a specific subject like ellos to describe an action performed by an unspecified authority or group (in this case, the museum administration).
What is the difference between using desde... hasta... and de... a... here?
Both combinations mean "from... to...", and you could say de mañana al lunes. However, desde... hasta... (from... until...) puts more emphasis on the starting and ending points of the time span, making the duration of the closure feel a bit more exact or emphatic.
Why do we need the word el before lunes?
In Spanish, days of the week almost always require the definite article (el or los) to mean "on" or just to refer to the day, unless they come directly after the verb ser (like Hoy es lunes). Because Monday is the endpoint of the timeframe here, it requires el.
