Best Answer

When Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette and their children (and household) were placed under control (house arrest) in the Tuileries palace, they tried to flee to Montmédy. They were discovered in the village of Varennes and the French returned them to Paris where they were put in the Temple prison.

Then when the Queen was taken to the Concierge prison, she and royalists tried to escape with the Carnation plot.

They wereimprisoned in the Tuillerie palace. Count Fersen (the Swiss military Marie Antoinette was very close to) and the Baron de Breteuil had come up with a plan to escape their imprisonment. One night, Marie Antoinette and her family dressed up disguised as the servants of a Russian baroness and ran off without the guards noticing. With the dauphin's governess, the Marquise de Tourzel taking on the role of a Russian baroness, the queen and the king's sister Madame Élisabeth playing her maids, the king her butler, and the royal children her daughters, the royal family made their escape. Count Fersen had arranged a coach with which he transported them to the border of Paris. From there on, he left them and another coachman droce them off to head for Montmedy. Unfortunately, they only made it to V arennes where they were caught and were brought back to Paris.

In spite of Louis' early protestations that he was in agreement with the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen, including pinning a cockade on his coat, he was in fact quite rightly fearful of the changing mood of the people. Had he stayed and played the role of constitutional monarch (as later kings did with varying success), he may have weathered the storm, but he was no politician and didn't understand how to equivocate (unlike his very talented Minister of Finance, Talleyrand, who survived all the way through the Revolution and past Napoleon into the reign of Louis XVIII). Instead, Louis contributed to the rising tide of public antipathy against the crown by communicating not-so-secretly with the gathering armies that were massing against the National Assembly, at times encouraging them to attack Paris and save him from his own people. Finally, when he made a dash for the Austrian border, attempting to gain sanctuary with his in-laws, it was crystal clear that he had no real sympathies with the Revolution. After that, it was only a matter of time before he was brought to trial.
