		The palais dates from the 1630s (parts of the original building still remain) and is royal because all-powerful Cardinal Richelieu (1585-1642) magnanimously bequeathed it to Louis XIII.
		During the French Revolution it became Le Palais Egalité (the Palace of Equality), because its owner, Louis-Philippe d'Orléans, the king's cousin, professed revolutionary ideas, one of which was to convert the arcades of the palace into boutiques and cafés.
		It stands on the site of a former royal palace, the Palais des Tournelles, which was abandoned by the Italian-born queen of France Catherine de' Medici when her husband, Henri II, was fatally lanced in the eye during a tournament here in 1559.

		During the Revolution, Charlotte Corday, a well brought up girl from Caen, decided that the Revolution had gone too far, as evidenced by the execution of King Louis XVI and the overthrow of the Girondins in the National Convention.
		She felt that Jean-Paul Marat, a radical journalist and leader of the Paris Commune and Jacobin Party, was to blame.
		On July 13, 1793, she obtained a meeting with Marat because she had "information to give him." During the meeting, which took place in his bathroom while he was bathing, she stabbed him to death using a knife bought at the cutlery establishment that once occupied 177 Galerie de Valois in the Palais Royal.
