“CRADLE OF THE REVOLUTION"
The Chateau de Vizille. "eight miles from Grenoble," in the Isere, where President Lebrun is spending summer holidays has been described as the "cradle of the Re- volution."
When the Estates of the Dau- phine decided in July, 1788. to hold an assembly to demand the im- mediate convocation of the Estates- General, they were prevented by the Governor of Grenoble from meeting in that city as they had intended.
"
Finally, at the invitation of the then owner, M. Perrier, the defant Estates met in the Chateau de Vizlile.
The chateau, which is one of the official residences of the. President" or the Republic, was built in 1610 by Lesdiguleres, and is classed as an historic monument.
