About Bastille Day
July 14, the French national holiday commonly known as Bastille Day, commemorates the anniversary of the Fête de la Fédération, a celebratory feast held one year after the storming of the Bastille in 1789. The storming of the Bastille—a fortified prison in Paris that stored arms and ammunition—is one of the events signifying the start of the French Revolution.
