Agathe de Rambaud fled the Palais des Tuileries during the Insurrection of 10 August 1792 with Jean-Baptiste Cléry, who speaks at length about her in his "Journal de ce qui s'est passé à la tour du Temple pendant la captivité de Louis XVI" ("Journal about what took place in the Prison Temple during the imprisonment of Louis XVI"). She escaped the palace and was given refuge by a Monseur le Dreux at a house nearby were Cléry, who had escaped the palace by jumping out of a window, was also hiding, and was escorted out of Paris to her parents i Versailles by Cléry the following day. They narrowly avoided prison at the Abbey of Saint Germain des Prés, where many prisoners were killed during the September massacres.
