Saturday April 23 at 10:30 a.m.
(1h30 guided tour)
A symbol of the modern state. The edifice asserts royal power: it protects the capital but also guarantees the kings against its uprisings. It was the heart of the French monarchy until 1682, when Louis XIV preferred Versailles. From the 16th to the 19th century, the dungeon was used as a prison: Fouquet, the Marquis de Sade and Mirabeau were all held there. Transformed into barracks and an arsenal by Napoleon I, the fortress protected Paris during the invasions of the 19th century.
A place of national remembrance.Restored after severe damage during the Second World War, the Château de Vincennes now houses the Service Historique de la Défense (SHD).
Please confirm your attendance as soon as possible, as places are limited to 30.
MEET AT 10:00 a.m. sharp at CHÂTEAU DE VINCENNES, 1 avenue de Paris, 94300 Vincennes.
