When the French Revolution forced Louis XVI and his family out of the Palace of Versailles in October 1789, they were forced to live in the Tuileries Palace until the monarchy was abolished in 1792. What then happened during those 1,000 days?
Running until 6 November 2023, this exhibition at the National Archives sheds light on this often-forgotten chapter of history. It offers a glimpse into the daily life of the royal family during this tumultuous period through a selection of unique and valuable documents (such as the King's diary and letters written by Marie-Antoinette), as well as paintings, engravings, and pieces of furniture.
