The French are a Cruel Cruel People

We just roamed around the Conciergerie! First, and for quite a while a royal palace, but for the parts of French history, a jail for those who mostly became victims of The Terror and Robespierre, Most famously, Marie Antoinette and... Robespierre.

This is a blade that was used in executions in the 19 century, but the design varied little since the early days.
