I am curious since I am not European. but....how important is La Bastille and why is France Government preserved it? if it is a prison, I imagine many didn't want to remember that. On other hand, there is Prison in Britain that also preserved, but that one also used as a castle and jailing royalty so I can understand why Britain Government want to preserve that. meanwhile over US, Alcatraz Island really famous because it is supossedly haunted, but I doubt a bit of piece of foundation are haunted enough to make Government preserve them. all I said is just conjecture however so Please educate me.

A French person would be able to explain better than me but the destruction of the Bastille is seen as one of the most important events not just of La Révolution but the whole of modern French history; it's the iconic moment that represents the pivot from Monarchy to Republic, from the rule of aristocracy to the rule of the people. So, much as they hated the prison, they wanted to keep bits of it, because in a way the destroyed stones are almost like a victory trophy. I'm massively simplifying things obv but that's the general idea :)

The short answer is that this particular prison played a central role in the French Revolution. You may have heard that it wasn't the most peaceful event ever, and as such many key figures found themselves in various prisons, but most notably this one in central Paris. As a result the place was stormed (broken into from the outside) to free a bunch of people. If memory serves a whole lot of killing also took place there in the name of the first revolution.
@louisgray3479

The Bastille wasn't just any prison. It was a state prison for upper-class members of French society (a bit like the London Tower). But the most important is it's destruction on the 14th July 1789 which marked the begin of the French revolution. This resulted in the execution of the French royal family and the establishment of the first French Republic. The French Revolution is seen as a turning point in the history of Europe, from which on the powers of the old monarchies and the European aristocracy faded, while Democracy spread. The ideals of the Revolution are a fundamental part of modern western society. The Bastille is the main symbol for that development. The 14th July is still the French National holyday which is celebrated each year (with probably the exception of 2020) with a military parade in Paris.

There’s lots of street markings around these days. Here in Utrecht for example there are steel plates marking the limit of the Roman castellum walls (right around the Dom cathedral area), as well as basalt stones marking the foundations of the 8th century church that stood there *and* where most of the Dom stood before it collapsed in a big storm in the 1660s. Oh, and various other parts of churches, the old medieval city wall and gates, and random other bits and pieces are marked. It’s downright a trend - pretty darn cheap to implement, makes your city look historic, and the tourists actually find them useful. And attracting tourists is good for the local economy.

Oh, well, at least the Sainte-Chapelle and is still around and Notre-Dame once they finish restoring it. The Louvre and the Bastille would have been such awesome castles though.

And even if I'm also nostalgic for the foggy nights of northern Italy, like the the one you had in San Marino, I my book, you just can't post too many Paris videos, they're great! And if you'd care to do something on the old Paris wall(s), it'll tie in nicely with your previous motifs of Parisian train lines and Metro, wineyards, windmills and generally loafing about town...

I was successful in finding a small plaque commemorating something I've since forgotten and there is/was a shopping mall occupying part of the site. What was funny was running into a half dozen other people who were there at the same time I was looking for the same thing for the same reasons. And they were equally puzzled.

Ah have you been there? Is it as good as it looks? It is VERY MUCH on my to-do list :) :)

A pleasure to watch as always Tim, and worth watching at least once again to pick up the clever bits you sneak in to keep us wanting more.
