National Day in FranceThe French national day is held on July 14th to commemorate the storming of the Bastille, a prison and castle which stood in the heart of Paris. It marks the beginning of the French Revolution in 1789.

It is often called 'Bastille Day' in English-speaking countries, while the French simply name it by the date: "le quatorze juillet"
