The September Massacres were a series of killings from September 2 to 6, 1792, during the French Revolution. Radicalization, fear of counterrevolution, and leaders like Georges Danton influenced the public's actions. The violence claimed 1,100 to 1,400 lives in Parisian prisons, with key locations including the Carmes Convent and Bicêtre Prison. These events led to political polarization and foreshadowed the Reign of Terror, highlighting the extreme measures revolutionaries took to defend their republic.
