684historical_info = french_wars_religion.6.historical_info On May 12, 1588, Paris erupted as citizens, loyal to the Duke of Guise and the Catholic League, rebelled against King Henry III. Erecting barricades in the streets, they blocked royal troops, forcing the king to flee the city. This dramatic uprising handed control of Paris to Guise and pressured the king into signing the Edict of Union, bolstering the League's power. Yet the triumph sowed future chaos, as Henry III later ordered Guise's assassination, sparking further conflict. The Day of the Barricades marked a turning point, showcasing the power of urban revolt in France's religious and political turmoil.
