Best Answer

The "chant de guerre de l'armée du Rhin" (the war song of the Rhine army) was composed in late April 1792, by Rouget de Lisle. It was first sung publicly, by its author, in the same town where it was written, Strasbourg in eastern France.

It gained widespread popularity in July 1792, when a volunteer regiment from Marseille sung it upon arrival in Paris. The Parisians immediately gave the song a new name, "La Marseillaise", under which it is still known.
