The Committee of Public Safety, charged with hunting down the enemies of the Revolution, established its headquarters close by in the "Pavillon de Flore" of the Louvre, while the Tribunal, the revolutionary court, set up its courtroom within the old Royal Palace on the "Île-de-la-Cité", inside what is now the "Palais de Justice".
