What to expect
The route builds to the Place de la Bastille, where the fortress-prison fell in 1789 and the July Column now glitters. Riddles sift revolution from legend.
At the Hôtel de Sens, one of Paris's last medieval mansions, trivia finds turrets, a formidable archbishop and a cannonball from 1830 still lodged in the facade.
Then the Place des Vosges opens its pink-brick arcades — the oldest planned square in Paris, once home to Victor Hugo and countless duels.
Around two hours through the city's most storied quarter. The leaderboard delivers the final verdict — appeal denied.
