Where is the Bastille Castle?

The Bastille was a prison, but it is not there anymore. It was stormed on July 14th 1789 and eventually demolished in that same year. The spot where the Bastille prison used to be, is now called Place de la Bastille and the large ditch that used to be around the Bastille prison is now used for pleasure boats. Some undemolished remains of one tower of the fort were discovered during excavation for the Métro (rail mass-transit system) in 1899, and were moved to a park (the Square Henri-Galli) a few hundred meters away, where they are displayed today. The original outline of the fort is also marked on the pavement of streets and sidewalks that pass over its former location, in the form of special paving stones. A cafe and some other businesses largely occupy the location of the fort, and the rue Saint Antoine passes directly over it as it opens onto the roundabout of the Bastille.
