Francia Nemzeti Nap - július 14
Bastille Day is one of the most important national holidays in France. It marks the storming of the Bastille prison on 14 July 1789. Although only a few prisoners were inside, the event became a powerful symbol of people's fight against the monarchy. Today, the holiday celebrates freedom, equality, and national unity. Across the country, cities organise concerts, fireworks, and public events, while Paris hosts a famous military parade attended by thousands of spectators.
