Bastille Day HistoryBastille Day commemorates a pivotal event in the French Revolution and celebrates the unity of the French nation. The day honors the storming of the Bastille prison on July 14, 1789, which marked the beginning of the end for the French monarchy and the rise of modern France. Bastille Day is significant not only to the French but also to Americans due to the intertwined histories of the two nations. Both countries experienced revolutionary events that challenged the concept of absolute monarchy and feudal systems in the eighteenth century. The French Revolution was inspired in part by the American Revolution, and in turn, the ideals of liberty, fraternity, and equality championed by the French people during their revolution influenced the development of American democracy. French restaurants and cultural institutions typically host special events, while some American cities hold parades and street fairs with traditional French cuisine and live music. One notable Bastille Day celebration in the U.S. occurs annually in New Orleans, where the city's French heritage is showcased through a multitude of events, including a historical reenactment of the storming of the Bastille. Bastille Day celebrations in the United States are held on July 14th. Top facts about Bastille Day
