What is Bastille Day and why does France celebrate it?
Bastille Day is the French national holiday, which marks the storming of the Bastille in the 1700s, and is known as La Fête Nationale Française in France.The Bastille was a medieval fortress and prison, which held many political dissidents, and had become a symbol of oppression and injustice in Paris. On July 14, 1789, an angry mob stormed the Bastille and released the prisoners – of which there were just seven at the time – before stealing the weapons stored inside. The invasion was significant at the time because it proved to revolutionaries that the King had little control over his armed forces and undermined his power. It was the beginning of what later became known as the French Revolution and the monarchy was eventually overthrown. King Louis and his wife Queen Marie Antoinette were arrested and eventually executed – along with other supporters of the royal family.It’s been held every year since to remember those who fought for freedom and justice in society.
