Capital of Revolutions (1x3)

Uitzenddatum: Dec 20, 2013

The Parisians changed the course of history when their uprising led to the storming of the Bastille prison and burning of the city hall in 1789. Some of the great symbols of oppression collapsed and institutions maturated. Baron Haussmann began numerous construction works to rebuild the Capital including creating broad avenues linked to the main train-stations, uniform building heights, use of gas and the completion of the Arc de Triomphe and the Invalides.
