Typed French comment reads: "Manifestations autour du Palais Bourbon. Aujourd'hui 23 juin, des milliers de personnes sont venues manifester autour du Palais Bourbon. Ici, boulevard Saint-Germain, des manifestants ont rompu le barrage de police et se dirigent vers le Palais Bourbon". (Demonstrations around the Palais Bourbon. Today, June 23, thousands of people have come to demonstrate around the Palais Bourbon. On Boulevard Saint-Germain, demonstrators broke the police barrier and are heading towards the Palais Bourbon.)
About:
The Palais Bourbon is the meeting place of the National Assembly, the lower legislative chamber of the Government of France. It is located in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, on the Rive Gauche of the Seine, across from the Place de la Concorde.
The Palace was built in 1722 for Louise Françoise de Bourbon, the Duchess of Bourbon, the legitimized daughter of Louis XIV, and the Marquise de Montespan.
Four successive architects, Lorenzo Giardini, Pierre Cailleteau, Jean Aubert, and Jacques Gabriel, completed the house in 1728. During the French Revolution, it was nationalized from 1795 to 1799. During the Directory, it served as the meeting place of the Council of Five Hundred, which chose the government leaders. Beginning in 1806, during Napoleon's First Empire, Bernard Poyet's Neoclassical facade was added to mirror the one of the Church of the Madeleine, facing it across the Seine and the Place de la Concorde.
The Palace complex today has a floor area of 124,000m², with over 9,500 rooms, in which 3,000 people work. The complex includes the Hôtel de Lassay on the west side of the Palais Bourbon; it is the official residence of the President of the National Assembly.
