The Place de la Concorde , is one of the most important public squares in Paris and the largest in the capital, it was designed in 1755, decorated with statues and fountains and was named Place Louis XV in honor of the king, whose statue on the back from a horse he got up here too.During the French Revolution, the equestrian statue was demolished and the square was renamed “Plaza de la Revolucion”, and it was here that Louis XVI was executed by guillotine on January 21, 1793; other people guillotined at this location included Queen Marie Antoinette, Robespierre, Princess Elizabeth of France, and Madame du Barry.At the end of the conflict, the square changed its name again, this time Plaza de la Concordia, as a symbol of reconciliation, although in 1814 with the Bourbon restoration it was once again called Plaza de Luis XV and Plaza de Luis XVI in 1826; finally, in 1830, after the July Revolution, its current name was returned to it.
