See where the revolutionaries lived and fought, and the hall where Danton and the radical Cordeliers' club held their debates.

Witness the events at the Palais Royal leading to the storming of the Bastille, and the violent aftermath on the Concorde Square. See how Lafayette and Thomas Paine brought the American Revolution to France. Follow the ordinary people of Paris, the heroic (and unsung) revolutionary women leaders and the fate of Louis the 16th and Marie-Antoinette. Learn how the revolutionary spirit is alive and well in France today.
