French Revolution Paris Walks 3 March

We were so impressed with the Paris Walks Hemingway tour that we decided to go on another one the next day. By coincidence, it was the same guide - Chris.

Paris Walks tour: The French revolution on the Right Bank
Meeting place: Metro Palais Royal at Place du Palais Royal
12 euros each


We were told some  stories about Queen Marie Antoinette, Robespirre, Equality Phillip and Charlotte Corday.

Walked around the Palais Royal where new ideas were debated, the site of the rebel Jacobin club.

The ill-fated Tuileries Palace.

we ended up at la Place de la Concorde where the guillotine stood.
