History III
by Kuznetsov_Sergey
After the death of Peter I, using confusion in Russia, in 1733 France again insisted on elections of Stanislav as the king of Poland. However not for a long time... France waged war with Austria which was supported by Russia.
Stanislav again, already finally remained without the Polish crown, and as the indemnification for the Polish section, received Lorraine in lifelong possession, having kept, however, a title of the king.
Packing List
by Kristina1701
Well, I'd say that the weather in Nancy is pretty similar to the weather in W. Germany. The winters shouldn't be too cold and summers not too hot. A really strange thing about La Lorraine is the fact that whenever I went there it rained lol I don't know if that was because of me (lol just kidding) or if they just get a lot of rain this area. Anyway, I recommend you to bring an umbrella!
Citadelle Gate, other side

On the picture you see gate from other side that is more impressive. I was surprised that the all gate in Nancy are the part of transport traffic. Gate is situated on the crossing of Rue la Citadelle and Rue Henri Deglin
Heré's Arch
by solopes
The triumphal arch with the architect's name connects Stanislas and La Carrière squares.
Enhancing the perfect geometry of the squares, it frames the central part of both dominant buildings in each square - City Hall and Governor's palace.
Visit the Place d'Alliance
by hquittner
Just Southeast of the Pl. Stanislas is the Pl. d'Alliance that was also designed by Here in the 18C. It is surrounded by fine Hotels. At the center of the square is a tall monument. It has a fountains and statuary by Cyffre and its top is like an obelisk but has at its top a small statue of Concord. It commemorates a treaty between the Bourbons and Austria in 1756 enabled by Stanidlas.
