Frequently asked
When did the Storming of the Bastille happen?

Why did people attack the Bastille fortress?
Parisians stormed the Bastille primarily to seize the 30,000 pounds of gunpowder stored inside, not to free prisoners. They needed weapons and ammunition to defend themselves against King Louis XVI's troops who were surrounding the city.
