The Great Fire of London
generated at 2024-08-18
It was a dark and stormy night in September 1666 when the Great Fire of London began to spread its devastating flames across the city. The fire started at a bakery on Pudding Lane, where sparks from the oven ignited nearby hay and wood. The owner, Thomas Farrinor, tried to put out the small blaze but it quickly grew into a massive inferno that seemed to have a life of its own.
The people of London were in a state of panic as they watched their homes and businesses being consumed by the flames. The fire moved with incredible speed, fueled by strong winds and the largely wooden construction of the city's buildings. As it spread, people began to flee in terror, carrying what little they could salvage from their burning homes.
The King himself, Charles II, was awakened in the night by the news of the fire and quickly ordered his guards to evacuate the palace. He watched in horror as the city he loved burned to ashes before his very eyes. The Great Fire of London would eventually be brought under control on September 5th, but not before it had destroyed over 13,000 houses, 87 churches, and 44 guild halls.
