Place de la Carrière

This is a beautiful square located next to Place Stanislas. It consists of numerous World Heritage structures. The Arc Here, Merchants Exchange, Government Palace, the Beauvau-Craon Hotel, the Here Pavilion and others constructed from the 1500s. There is a semicircular colonnade decorated with the busts of Olympian gods. In the center there is an esplanade lined with lime trees and with fountains at each corner. There were races and tournaments along this road. This is an amazing area. You can now stop for a meal at Louis XV or a drink at LE 15 at the Government Palace.

Oh this week-end with the book fair, 12 to 14 September 2025 was Amazing! As always! #lelivresurlaplace #Nancy

On 17 July, 2024, my wife and I came here. Coming from Hong Kong, we were very impressed to see the landscape architecture. Having waited for passers-by to walk or cycle past, we captured our sights.

Very animated in Christmas with christmas shops and cafés and a huge ferris wheel with a view on practically the whole city. A lot of events take place in it too throughout the year like the pride, music festivals, Nancy's book festival and others.

Beautiful square between the Arc Here and the Governant Palace. You always pass by here when walking the historic routes of Nancy.

Christmas Market still open after 12/24!! The scale is pretty small,only around fives stalls. Contains some entertainment facilities suitable mainly for kids.

A very nice place but I am surprised that it is World Heritage listed by UNESCO.

Very beautiful place to visit in Nancy.
