Map of 1789 Paris

 

You can see the Bastille on the middle of the right side and the Tuileries along the Seine near the Louvre.

In the middle, you can see the Conciergerie where prisoners had trials during the Reign of Terror.

In the upper left corner and to the right of Champs-Élysées, you can see The Place de la Révolution, which is called Place Louis XV on the map. This is where Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, and Robespierre were executed.

Versailles is not shown, but it is southwest of Paris. St. Cloud, also not shown, is west of Paris.
