LOUIS-PHILIPPE - LES TROIS GLORIEUSES / THE THREE GLORIOUS DAYS

(1830)

We commemorate the Three Glorious Days of July 27, 28 and 29, 1830, which brought about the fall of Charles X and forced him to abdicate on July 31, 1830. Louis-Philippe was appointed Lieutenant General of the kingdom before becoming King of the French on August 9. The July Column on the Place de la Bastille commemorates the Three Glorious Days of July 1830.
