Answer:
The Bastille stood for the despotic power or autocratic rule of King Louis XVI. It was hated by all. This and a combination of other factors including rumours led to the demolition of The Bastille by the common people on 14 July 1798, also freeing the political prisoners who were held captive, though there were only 7 of them. The stone fragments of The Bastille were sold in markets to all those who wished to keep a souvenir of its destruction.
