Vizille was one of the cradles of the French Revolution: on 21 July 1788, after the Day of the Tiles in Grenoble, the Assembly of Vizille met there and called for the Estates General to be convened, with voting by head and no longer by order.
True to its origins, the town asked La Brigade Infernale to take part in its revolutionary festival. Our workshops, from zoology to geography by way of medicine, hygiene and peasant life, depicted daily life in the years 1789-1794.
The Chappe telegraph and the conscription, in which visitors took part, were very popular with the audience, welcomed in the beautiful setting of the Château de Vizille.
