ABOUT THE CITY OF NANCY

Nancy is home to numerous talented photographers, and there are many opportunities to capture striking images there.

Nancy is a French commune in Lorraine, located on the banks of the Meurthe a few kilometres upstream from where it joins the Moselle – a tributary of the Rhine – 281 km east of Paris and 116 km west of Strasbourg. It serves as the prefecture of the Meurthe-et-Moselle department in the Grand Est region. Its inhabitants are known as Nancéiens.
The capital of the Duchy of Lorraine until its annexation by the Kingdom of France in 1766, and a bishopric since 1777, Nancy was the administrative centre of the department of Meurthe from 1790 to 1871, and of Meurthe-et-Moselle from 1871 onwards. It is also renowned for Place Stanislas, named after the last Duke of Lorraine, which forms part of an 18th-century ensemble designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city also boasts numerous buildings listed as historic monuments and is a leading European centre of Art Nouveau thanks to the École de Nancy.
As at 1 January 2013, the population within the city limits stood at 104,072, making Nancy the second most populous municipality in Lorraine after Metz. With a population of 435,356 in 2016, the Nancy urban area is the most populous in Lorraine, the second largest in the Grand Est region after Strasbourg, and the twentieth largest in France. Nancy is also one of the leading university cities, and the metropolitan area is home to one of France’s major healthcare hubs.

In addition to its many characteristic narrow streets and unique atmosphere, Nancy offers numerous green spaces and pleasant walks. The city provides an ideal setting for photographers and for creating distinctive photo reports that showcase your company, organisation or institution.

Nancy was founded relatively late. Permanent settlement there is only attested from the 9th century onwards. The natural, marshy landscape is, in fact, not particularly conducive to human settlement.

Nancy has had a special connection with water since its very beginnings. The heritage signage along the waterfront, installed as part of the Mulhouse Diagonales project, highlights 14 iconic sites to discover or rediscover.

Place Stanislas and the UNESCO World Heritage Site

With a passion for art and architecture, Stanislas Leszczynski transformed Nancy by commissioning the construction of the three squares that have been listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 1983. Made pedestrianised in 2005, Place Stanislas is considered one of the most beautiful squares in the world.

When he arrived in the ducal city, he found it divided into two distinct areas, separated by bastions: the Old Town, a medieval settlement with a concentric layout, where the Ducal Palace is situated; and the New Town, a Renaissance settlement with straight, parallel streets.

By choosing the esplanade separating the two cities as the site for a royal square in the classical and Rococo styles, he set his architect, Emmanuel Héré, a twofold challenge. Héré was tasked with creating a setting in which to erect the statue of the King of France, Louis XV – Stanislas’s son-in-law – whilst also successfully uniting the two cities.

Work began on 18 March 1752. The new square comprised the new Town Hall to the south, flanked to the east and west by four pavilions of the same height. Opposite, Héré built low-rise structures so as not to obstruct the cannons on the ramparts.

A road leads to the Arc de Triomphe (now known as the Arc Héré, in honour of the architect) and then to the Place de la Carrière, which was originally intended for jousting. The façades of the buildings on this square have been completely refurbished to create architectural unity. At the far end, mirroring the Town Hall, stands the Government Palace, the seat of French authority over Lorraine, flanked by a royal garden. A perfectly symmetrical axis governs the layout of the entire complex.

The third square in the complex is Place de l’Alliance. It is a more intimate space, bordered by a ring of trees that shield a fountain at its centre, commemorating the alliance between France and Austria in 1756. 

The three sites have been listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 1983.
