Stanislas Square

Highlight • Settlement

The square takes its name from Stanislas Leszczynski, Duke of Lorraine, who is behind its construction. Its dimensions (106 x 124 meters) enhance its classic style. True heart of the city, it concentrates all the magnificence of Nancy.

Confluence of the Moselle and Meurthe rivers

Highlight • River

The Meurthe and the Moselle meet at the level of the place called the gates of Hell. For centuries, river traffic on the Meurthe has transported wood from the Vosges mountains. By joining the Moselle in a northerly direction, the boats could reach the Rhine. The river then had an economic influence that it has lost today.

Premonstratensian Abbey Pont-à-Mousson

Highlight • Religious Site

The former Premonstratensian abbey of Sainte-Marie-Majeure (Great Saint Mary) in Pont-à-Mousson, a municipality in the Meurthe-et-Moselle department in the French region of Grand Est (formerly Lorraine), was built in the early 18th century in the Baroque style. The abbey, which covers an area of 12,000 square meters, is considered one of the most important monastery complexes in Lorraine. In 1910, the church and parts of the abbey, and in 1919 the entire monastery complex, were added to the list of architectural monuments (Base Mérimée) in France as a monument historique (Wikipedia).

The exterior of the abbey is very impressive, the interior even less so. The complex was actually converted into a hotel. For € 10 per person, you see relatively little and it is actually a demolition!

View of Saint Martin's Church from the Moselle Bridge

Highlight • Religious Site

The architecture is a rare mix of Gothic Rayonnant and Flamboyant, with a unique façade designed by Jacquemin de Lenoncourt, who later designed Toul Cathedral. Note the asymmetrical towers and the Gothic detailing around the portal – subtle but impressive.
