Nancy enjoys a semi-continental climate, with warm summers around 25°C and cold, dry winters where the thermometer often drops below 0°C. The ideal period runs from May to September to enjoy the Place Stanislas and the flower-filled parks. The month of September is particularly charming for its back-to-school atmosphere and the golden light on the 18th-century facades, while December remains a must to experience the Saint Nicholas festivities, which are iconic to the Lorraine region.
No need to worry about where to begin! Our tours are designed as a loop, so you can jump in wherever you are. The navigation system and audio-guide will automatically adjust to your location. However, if you happen to be nearby, we do have a preferred starting point: Place Saint-Epvre.
