With Love From Paris Tours
We will start this tour at a place where the guillotine, a gruesome accessory of the French revolution, took its toll with thousands of victims’ severed heads. This will be the opportunity to learn and “revive” this horrendous episode of French history know as “Grand Terror”. At the end of a short informative walk following the guillotine’s bloody trail, the Grail will be the eeriest Parisian spot ever where the victims are still buried: a fairly sized private estate with a countryside touch to it that shelters an impressive old cemetery with emblazoned graves of the wealthy centuries-old nobility. There peacefully rests the heroic marquis of Lafayette, hero of the U.S. war of Independence, whose deeds influenced America's destiny. Amidst the eeriness of this place, you’ll realize how French and Americans are closely connected through each other’s past. More than getting a history course, you will truly experience a meaningful moment. Oddly, you’ll come out of it with an uplifting sense of awe, of bliss, of peacefulness!
