    Man darf auf das neue Museum gespannt sein!! Im Moment wegen des Umbaus kostenloser Eintritt in die Franziskanerkirche mit bedeutendem Grabmal der Philippa von Geldern von Lighier Richier und Grablege der Herzöge von Lothringen.

    (Translated by Google) The Palace of the Dukes of Lorraine is the former home of the Dukes of Lorraine. It was the main residence of the Dukes of Lorraine during the Renaissance and this until the Classic period when the court of Lorraine was transferred to the castle of Lunéville. It currently houses the Museum of Lorraine, which traces the history of the Lorraine region from prehistoric times to modern times, mainly through the deduced history of Lorraine. (Original) El Palacio de los Duques de Lorena es la antigua casa de los Duques de Lorena. Fue la residencia principal de los duques de Lorena durante el Renacimiento y esto hasta el período Clásico cuando la corte de Lorena fue trasladada al castillo de Lunéville . Actualmente alberga el Museo de Lorena, que traza la historia de la región de Lorena desde la prehistoria hasta la época moderna, principalmente a través de la historia deducado de Lorena.

    Wegen Renovation ist der riesige ehemalige Herzogs-Palast derzeit geschlossen (deshalb nur 4 Sterne). Er war der Sitz der Herzöge von Lothringen ab Ende des 15. Jahrhunderts (erbaut im 16. Jahrhundert). Im Revolutions-Jahr 1848 wurde er zum Lothringischen Museum (Musée Lorrain). Der grandiose Eingang, „Porterie“ genannt, geht auf das Schloss von Blois zurück. Spannend ist hier der Übergang von gotischen alten Formen zu den neuen Formen der Renaissance zu erleben. Die Fenster sind schon schön im Renaissance-Stil gestaltet. Wir saßen gegenüber und ich skizzierte den Eingang, dann fotografierte ich die weitläufige Anlage, in die auch die „Eglise des Cordeliers“ einbezogen ist, die Minoritenkirche der Franziskaner, die eine Kordel (Cordeliers) als Gürtel mit drei Knoten für ihre drei Gelübde tragen (Armut, Gehorsam, ehelose Keuschheit). Auch diese Kirche gehört zum Lothringischen Museum und kann gratis besichtigt werden. Sie diente als Grablege der Herzöge. Hier ruhen sie unter schweren Grabplatten aus Sandstein gemeißelt. Zu Füßen der Männer: die Löwen für Tapferkeit. Zu Füßen der Frauen: die Hunde für Treue, Treue als ein Attribut, das wohl für die Männer nicht so wichtig war. Sehr schön restauriert und mit Infos zugänglich gemacht. Ich skizzierte den Chor mit seinem schönen Kreuzgrat-Gewölbe. Otto von Habsburg ließ sich hier trauen und feierte hier 2001 die Goldene Hochzeit. Ein Zeichen für Europa.

    (Translated by Google) The Lorraine Museum is the must-see in the old town of Nancy, located on Grande Rue, near the Porte de la Craffe. One will find there the paintings of the great Lorraine painter Georges de la Tour and other testimonies of the rich medieval past of Lorraine. I recommend ! (Original) Le Musée Lorrain est le lieu incontournable de la vieille ville de Nancy, sis Grande Rue, à proximité de la Porte de la Craffe. On y trouvera les tableaux du grand peintre lorrain Georges de la Tour et d'autres témoignages du riche passé médiéval de la Lorraine. Je recommande !
