Overview
On Monday June 20, 1791, in great secrecy, the royal family left the Tuileries Palace where they were prisoners of the Revolution. Marie-Antoinette wore a lady-in-waiting costume. It is very dark, very hot, the very first night of summer. But what happened between the departure from the Tuileries and the trap of Varennes?
