Feuillant Club

The Feuillant Club was a political group during the French Revolution, formed in 1791 by moderate reformers who split from more radical revolutionaries. They aimed to preserve constitutional monarchy and stability, advocating gradual change rather than radical overhaul. The club sought to limit the power of radicals and protect the interests of the wealthy and middle classes. It played a significant role for a brief period but declined as revolutionary tensions increased, and more radical factions gained influence. Overall, the Feuillant Club represented an attempt at cautious reform within the revolutionary movement.
