Louis XVI's Execution
21st January 1792: On January 21, 1793, Louis XVI of France (1754 - 1793), accompanied by his confessor, was led to the guillotine in the Place de la Revolution. On the scaffold he attempted to address the people, but his voice could not be heard over the drums. Afterwards, the executioner lifted the head by the hair, and the crowd shouted 'Long live the Republic!' (Photo by Hulton Archive/Getty Images)
