The execution of Louis XVI post his imprisonment due to the August 10, 1792 insurrection marked a pivotal moment in French history, signifying the monarchy's fall and the French Republic's rise. Following the Tuileries Palace attack, the Convention's September 21, 1792 decision to end the monarchy rendered Louis's fate unclear. The discovery of his secret negotiations through 726 documents on November 20 further condemned him. Maximilien Robespierre, a key figure in the revolution, argued Louis's actions rendered a trial unnecessary, contrary to his usual anti-death penalty stance, believing execution was essential to safeguard the republic. Louis was unanimously convicted by the Convention for conspiracy and endangering public safety, leading to his execution on January 21, 1793.
