This week in the agenda

Ensemble immobilier du palais du Gouvernement stands in Nancy (Meurthe-et-Moselle), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In Nancy, on the place de la Carrière, this large 18th-century mansion reflects the urban ambitions of King Stanislas and his architect Emmanuel Héré. Built between 1751 and 1753 over the remains of an unfinished palace project commissioned by Duke Léopold I, the building later served as a governor's residence, then as a military and prefectural seat. Visitors can see the classical façades, the sculpted decoration by Barthélémy Guibal, and the gardens where a few false arcades from the old ducal project still stand.
