what did the revolutionaries find in the bastille prison
Storming of the Bastille At this point, the Bastille was nearly empty, housing only seven prisoners:[24] four forgers, two "lunatics" and one "deviant" aristocrat, the Comte de Solages (the Marquis de Sade had been transferred out ten days earlier).[23]
Place de la Concorde During the French Revolution in 1789 the statue of Louis XV of France was torn down and the area renamed the Place de la RÃ©volution. The new revolutionary government erected a guillotine in the square, and it was here that King Louis XVI was executed on 21 January 1793.
