Highlights
  • Place Stanislas - Stanislas Leszczynski who sits proudly in the center of the Place of the same name is both King of Poland, Duke of Lorraine and father-in-law of the King of France, Louis XV.

It was he who commissioned the construction of this Baroque-style Place Royale, inaugurated in the middle of the 18th century. Jean Lamour’s rococo railings form a golden setting around this character with an extraordinary destiny.

Additional Information

Uncover the city’s past and cultural heritage led by a guide who possesses a Master’s degree in history and operates in association with the city’s Tourism Office, while also engaging in independent pursuits.

Local chronicles and broader contexts are delivered by an avid scholar, experienced in the field, and has been offering guided tours in Nancy for several years.

Focused on education, I make a concerted effort to tailor to the level of knowledge of those participating, be they novices or experts.

Interesting tales, intricate details, and fascinating facts are all part of making the tours interesting and I relish in communicating them. In just ninety minutes, we weave smaller personal stories with grander narratives for a warm, shared experience of enlightenment and camaraderie.

Really thank you to our guide - There were only two of us, but the guide was extremely helpful. He took his time to tell us the history of the old town and its monuments. Fascinating: I was accompanied by a young boy of 14, who was keen on History. We were motivated enough to forget the cold. Many thanks to our guide!

Nancy, a small city with great history - The tour is very well planned and takes place in a relatively small perimeter because Nancy is not a big city. Leopold is punctual, friendly, extremely knowledgeable. I enjoyed my time and learned a lot about the city...expectations fulfilled.

Very good - not to be missed - As part of a Franco-German cultural exchange, I followed the visit (for the French-speaking part) with our guide Léopold. An instructive, clear and extraordinary discovery, Léopold knows how to adapt to his audience and answer all questions. Don't hesitate to ask for Léopold at the Nancy tourist office, you won't regret it!

Great tour from Leopold - We had an excellent tour of Nancy with our guide Leopold. The tour is in French. He entertained us by sharing historical perspectives and stories of the people who shaped the development of Nancy. My french isn’t great by i was able to understand most of it as he is very clearly spoken. A great way to spend 90 minutes on arriving in Nancy and fair value.
