It had a capacity of 42 prisoners, but only seven were in custody on 14 July 1789.

It was 260 feet long by 130-150 feet wide (ends/middle) with walls that were 80 feet high sitting on a base 20 feet high (100 feet total). A video of the Bastille's structural measurements can be found on YouTube with the following title: How big was the Bastille...really...exactly?
