At Remains of the Bastille

Bastille, Paris

True bits of the Bastille (none at Place de la Bastille)
Bring kids; playground is the main attraction

The Bastille's actual ruins hide behind a playground fence: a few weathered stones from the prison that sparked a revolution. Come for the history, stay for the absurdity of kids swinging where revolutionaries once plotted.

Wednesday, February 17
