Title
Departure of populace for Rambouillet
Description
Catalyzed by the decreasing popularity of Charles X and the continual economic hardships of the working class, the July Revolution of 1830 ended the Bourbon monarchy and brought Louis-Philippe to the throne. The first day of violence occurred on July 27th, following the publication of the king's controversial ordinances banning freedom of the press. Protesters violently rioted throughout Paris, and the French government was forced to set up various barricades, but to little avail. By July 29th, the third and final day of fighting, the throne of Charles X was clearly overthrown. His court was forced to flee to Rambouillet, and Louis-Philippe was appointed to the throne. Charles X did not, however, surrender without a fight. After refusing to abandon his post at Rambouillet, the National Guard, along with around 20,000 protestors, stormed the Rambouillet palace (shown here). On August 4th, Charles X finally surrendered and left Rambouillet, and Louis-Philippe took the civil oath in office five days later.
