Les lieux d’exécution à Paris

No mention of Place de la Concorde

Quote from article: "All citizens deemed guilty of a crime punishable by death were from then on executed there. . . .", referring to Place de l'hôtel de ville (known then as Place de Grève).

This seems to be contradicted by the Place de la Concorde Wikipedia article, which states that the guillotine there (named "Place de la Révolution" at the time) executed more than 1,000 people, including Louis XVI, "Queen Marie Antoinette, Princess Élisabeth of France, Charlotte Corday, Madame du Barry, Georges Danton, Camille Desmoulins, Antoine Lavoisier, Maximilien Robespierre, Louis de Saint-Just and Olympe de Gouge."

It just doesn't seem to me to be a very important or noteworthy section of guillotine use. Pschati (talk) 10:23, 5 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
