Place Stanislas

Really loved it. A mix of French and Polish baroque. The place and the surrounding garden was really friendly. We saw a dancefloor in the middle of the gardens, behind a really nice cafe. All the locals young and old swinging to the music. Magical.

I visited Place Stanislas today and was completely charmed. The golden gates, elegant facades, and lively atmosphere made it feel like walking through a fairytale from the old times. It felt peaceful and inviting I took a break by the Neptune fountain, enjoying the breeze and the sound of water — such a calming moment in the middle of the city. This place isn’t just beautiful; it has soul. I’m truly grateful I got to experience it.

Very beautiful and well preserved plaza. The architecture is stunning and the finishes with gold add a nice touch to the look of the buildings.

beautiful square with several restaurants & elegant classic coffee shops surrounded with beautiful buildings like opera house and fine art museum and during summertime there’s a tourist train can show you the glamour of the town & all the monuments.

Impressive square with place to eat or drink, I loved the light show at 10 pm apparently it takes place every summer! Very nice

A truly impressive square with royal charm! Place Stanislas in Nancy is an architectural gem – spacious, elegant, and full of history. The golden gates, fountains, and classical buildings create a grand and welcoming atmosphere. Cafés, museums, and the town hall are located right on the square – a perfect place to soak in the charm of Nancy. Some buildings around the square are currently under renovation, but this doesn’t take away from the overall experience. A must-see when visiting Nancy!

This is an extraordinarily magical place at night and a must-see during the day! Baroque styles Gates and decorations on the buildings make this one of my favorite spots in Nancy! Fun fact: this place, the place de la Carrière and the place d'Alliance are part of the World Heritage Site 💯

Absolutely stunning square and a true gem of Nancy. Place Stanislas is beautifully designed, with elegant 18th-century buildings and golden gates that shine in the sunlight. The atmosphere is lively during the day with cafés and people enjoying the space, and at night the light show on the buildings is magical. A perfect place to stroll, relax, or take photos. Definitely a must-see if you’re visiting Nancy

UNESCO world Heritage listed square in Nancy. It's the main square in town and surrounded with beautiful buildings dating back to the 1700's. The square was a major project in urban planning, dreamt up by Stanisław I, as a way to link the medieval old town of Nancy and the new town built under Charles III in the 17th century. The square would also be a place royale to honour his son-in-law, Louis XV. The design linked two handsome buildings that already existed: the Hôtel de Ville (now centred on its grand square) and the Hôtel du Gouvernement. The seat of city government and the seat of Ducal government faced each other as complements through a series of rational, symmetrical but varied urban spaces, unequalled in Europe at the time. We stayed in an apartment right on the square and it was magnificent to step out early in the morning and just admire the empty square. It's a gorgeous piece of architecture in France and one of the finest squares I have seen in a while. Nancy is a wonderful old city with gorgeous buildings, markets, parks and restaurants. It's also a major university town and well worth a visit.

I get it, it's pretty. I mean, it's really pretty. But I don't get all the hype. It's a pretty square, a nice place, surrounded by the art museum, city hall, and the opera. Overpriced cafés with bad service galore, The Amorino and their gelato is probably your best bet if you're looking to have something that doesn't leave a bad taste.
