Departure from Paris
The first section of this women's march of 5 October 1789 follows fairly closely what we know today about the route taken at the time. Starting from the centre of Paris, we follow the course of the Seine and then cross the districts of Auteuil and Billancourt. We cross the Ile Seguin, where the Vieux Pont de Sèvres bridge used to be, and end up in Sèvres, where the 1789 procession made a stop. All along the way, there is a rich heritage to discover.

Departure from Paris
From the Port de Javel, the banks of the Seine are not particularly suitable for a stroll... We therefore leave the river to cross three large parks: André Citroën, Suzanne Lenglen and Île Saint-Germain. We then rejoin the towpath and its many moored barges. The walk ends with a brief detour into Saint-Cloud Park before taking the bridge of the same name to cross the Seine.

Another takes place in Paris, which was the scene of many events, including the storming of the Bastille on 14 July 1789. The other two connect Paris to Versailles, attempting to reproduce the women's march of 5 October 1789.
