1. It was an armory. 2. It was a prison. 3. The storming of the Bastille started the French Revolution because the peasants seized the weapons stored in the Bastille and became an army and not just a mob.
Bastille Day is also known as French National Day, held on July 14th. It commemorates the 1790 F̻te de la F̩d̩ration, held on the first anniversary of the storming of the Bastille.
The storming of the Bastille happened on July 14, 1789. Only 7 prisoners were found in the jail, only one of which was a political prisoner. The demolition of the Bastille started the very next day.
