Fodor's Expert Review Palais Ducal
Nancy
Castle/Palace
Built in the 13th century and completely restored in the 15th century and again after a fire at the end of the 19th century, this palace originally housed the dukes of Lorraine, and today it is home to the Musée Lorrain. A major renovation project means the museum is closed to the public until 2027. Regardless, you can admire the palace’s stunning architecture from the outside; one wing is a spectacular example of Flamboyant Gothic.
