    Prehistory and early history

    • 40,000 BC BC: first evidence of human settlements in the Paris area
    • 4200 BC Chr .: Evidence for continuous settlement in Paris. 1991 were unearthed at Bercy including several canoes made of oak , a bow and tools found.

    Antiquity

    • Before 300 BC BC: Arrival of the Gallic tribe of the Parisians in the region
    • During the Celtic period , the region was called Loutouchezi , which means something like "settlement in the middle of the water". The Romans changed this term to Lutetia and the geographer Ptolemy named the place Lucotetia .
    • Around 100 BC Chr .: First gold coins of the Parisians
      Gold coins of the Parisians
    • 53 BC Chr .: Great council of the Gauls in the presence of Caesar . The deputies of the Parisians are not present.
    • May 52 BC Chr .: At the battle of Lutetia the legions of Labienus , a lieutenant of Caesar, win over Camulogenus ' Aulerker , Senones and Parisians. The latter inhabited the area for several centuries. The Gauls preferred to destroy the bridges and set fire to the city than to leave them to the Romans. The fire of the Gallic Lutetias allowed the Romans to build the city according to Roman structures, especially since the parallel to Rome with seven hills and a river is obvious.
    • Between 37 and 14 BC Chr .: The Nautae Parisiaci (Parisian shipmen) erect a pillar in honor of Jupiter : the pillar of the Nautae Parisiaci , which was found in the foundations of Notre-Dame .

      Lutetia's first plan
    • Between 50 and 100 AD: the Lutetia forum was built
    • 65/66: record winter
    • Between 100 and 200: construction of three thermal baths with water from the Bièvre , which is transported by a 16 km long aqueduct , as well as an amphitheater with 17,000 seats (the arena of Lutetia ) and a theater with 3,000 seats.
    • Around 250: Martyrdom of the first Bishop of Paris, Dionysius of Paris . This was one of seven bishops who were sent Gaul to evangelize . The missionary's success drew the hatred of the pagans , who beheaded him in Montmartre . The legend shows more precisely that Dionysius took his head in his hands; this will be the most common portrayal of the future national saint of France.
    • 275 or 276: looting presumably by Germans from the left His -Ufer
    • 291/292: record winter; first traditional freezing of the Seine
    • At 300: Lutetia becomes Paris .

    • March 346: 20 days of continuous rain; Flood

    • February to July 358: Caesar Julian stays in Paris before starting campaigns against the Alemanni and Franks .
    • 359/360: Julian returns to Paris after his victorious campaigns. He probably lives in a palace that is located at the top of the Île de la Cité and in which the Merovingian kings later reside.
    • 360: Council in Paris on the heresy of Arianism . This Christian teaching, named after Arius , rejects the Trinity as well as the authority of the Pope . It was already condemned at the First Council of Nicaea and spread across Europe with Germanic , Gothic and Burgundian peoples . Paris becomes - even more than Rome - the city that rejects Arianism the most and remains loyal to the Roman Christians .
    • 361: Julian becomes emperor and writes in Misopogon : “I spent the winter in my dear Lutetia, which is located on a small island that can only be reached via two wooden bridges (the Wechsel bridge and the small bridge). You get excellent wine there and you start to grow fig trees. "
    • October to December 365: Emperor Valentinian I's first stay in Paris
    • June 366: Valentinian's second stay in Paris. The head of the opposing emperor Procopius , who was defeated by Valens , is brought to him. He also receives Jovian here , who defeated the Alemanni.

    • At 385: St. Martin passes through , who heals a leper at the north gate of the city with a kiss and a blessing
    • November 397: “Summer of St. Martin ”from November 8th to 11th the roses will bloom again

      Genoveva of Paris
    • 464–465: Siege of Paris by the Frankish petty king Childerich I , who drives the Romans out of Paris.
    • Around 475: a basilica is built over the tomb of Dionysius of Paris
    • 486: Genoveva of Paris negotiates with Clovis I about the subordination of Paris under Clovis's rule. Clovis previously achieved a decisive victory over the Roman Syagrius , but Genoveva denied him access to Paris. He besieged the city, in which a famine breaks out. Genoveva organizes the food and Clovis ends the siege. This tense situation between Paris and Clovis has existed for ten years. Paris thus forms a Catholic enclave in the middle of an area dominated by Arianism, which is why Genoveva does not want to end relations with the pagan - not like the other barbarians Arianist - King Clovis for good. The defeat of the “last Roman” Syagrius in Paris marks the change from antiquity to the Middle Ages or to late antiquity .
      Clovis I.

    middle Ages

    Early middle ages

    • 494: Clovis I is gradually converted from his Catholic environment to Catholicism . The political advantages are evident, especially as many cities that have remained staunchly Catholic, such as Paris, want a Catholic king. The first sign of gradual conversion is his son's baptism . The latter, however, dies shortly after the sacrament of the sacraments , which causes Clovis to become extremely angry, which is expressed in a renewed siege of Paris . Genoveva of Paris organized the food for the population again and Clovis lifted the siege.
    • 496 or 498: The conversion of Clovis to Catholicism in Reims is registered with jubilation in Paris. The city has granted entry to the converted Frankish king since then. The recapture of the heretical Arian territories begins. Clovis is the only reigning Catholic king at the time; France inherits Clovis' nickname "Fils aîné de l'Église" ( Eldest son of the Church , "France, Fille aînée de l'Église": France, eldest daughter of the Church ).
    • January 3, 500 or 502: Genoveva of Paris dies : she is buried on the “mountain” that bears her name. Clovis had the Apostle Church built there, which was replaced in the 12th century by the Basilica of St. Genoveva and in the 18th century by the Panthéon . Genoveva later became the patron saint of Paris.
