Nancy was the capital of the Duchy of Lorraine until the mid-18th century. Nestling in the Côtes de Moselle, in a valley surrounded by hills, it is located a few kilometres from the confluence points of the Moselle and Meurthe rivers.

Nancy's architectural and historic heritage is exceptional, and can be divided into three main periods.
The old town, with its streets around the Basilica of St. Epvre and the Craffe Gate, dates back to the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. This is where you can find the Lorraine Museum, which has one of the finest sculpture collections in France, and the tombs of the Dukes of Lorraine.
The 18th century is well represented by three superb town squares that are UNESCO World Heritage Sites: Place Stanislas, named after the Polish king who took refuge in Nancy in the 17th century, with its magnificent fountains and railings by Jean Lamour, Place de la Carrière and Place d'Alliance. The 18th century is also when the main commercial roads were laid in the city centre.
Lastly, the 1900s and the famous Nancy School art movement find expression in all the Art Nouveau buildings. There are many of them to see, visit and admire, like the Brasserie Excelsior or the Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
