The scenario

4/5 people per team - Duration: 2h - Self-guided - Not recommended for under 12s.

Maxime Delavoix, an inhabitant of Paris in 1789, is entrusted by a mysterious sponsor with the mission of organizing the escape of an enigmatic prisoner locked up in the dungeons of the royal Bastille prison. It's July 14, 1789, and Maxime soon finds himself caught up in the hustle and bustle of events, all converging on one central point: the fortress of the Bastille.

How does it work?

  • When you arrive, a member of the team will give you your instructions, and will intervene at the end to designate the winning team.
  • In teams of 4/5 people, you'll solve the riddles to guide Maxime's footsteps through the ancient streets of 1789 and experience the storming of the Bastille from the inside.

A fascinating investigation into the events of one of the most important days in French history.
