U-S- Founding Fathers in Paris

U-S- Founding Fathers in Paris

“Extraordinary men living in extraordinary times in an extraordinary city…
” — Historian David McCullows.

During the years leading up to the French Revolution, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson lived in Paris. These great men made history in the United States but also impacted that of France. Why did the American colonies send such high profile ambassadors to Paris?

Let’s walk on the footsteps of these Founding Fathers, along other figures who took part of the American war of Independance: Lafayette, Rochambeau, Thomas Paine, John Paul Jones and more…

You’ll see where they lived, died, had coffee or dinner and were even imprisoned! We’ll also explore decisive events such as the Treaty of Independence or the Louisiana Purchase…

Join me on a journey back in time to the American Revolution in Paris!
