Name of your mission “Carnation Plot”
January 21, 1793 – Louis XVI was led to the scaffold on the orders of the new Republic. From her jail at the Conciergerie, his wife Marie-Antoinette is also waiting to know her fate, which promises to be disastrous… A plot is being organized: the Queen of France must be saved!
On Wednesday, August 28, 1793, Jean-Baptiste Michonis entered the sovereign’s cell, accompanied by our friend Alexandre Gonsse, Chevalier de Rougeville (your contact). Both are ready to do anything to try to free the Queen, even to conspire against the new regime and risk losing their lives.
On the night of August 30, the two men returned to settle the details of the escape that was to take place on the night of September 2 to 3, 1793, that is to say, this evening!
From that date on, you take part in the action and enter history.
