THIS IS HOW TO ENJOY ONE OF THE WORLD’S FAVORITES: NANCY

 

So, did you wonder what corner of France you should discover next?

Most people don’t know the hidden jewels of the country, and it takes a good connaisseur to show you what’s possible to experience.

Once you read Debbie’s article, you may become a fan of her France Travel Info blog.

She is one of my most consistent clients, and her knowledge of France surpasses most francophiles.

Read the article below, written by Debbie in French, and let me know in the comments which part of Nancy you like most.

This was her homework, and she’s also adding the French version of her articles on her blog!

If she can write this well, so can you 😉

 

« LE COIN FRANCOPHONE » SERIES: #17 DEBBIE

Both France and her language are undoubtedly my passion. One of the best things about writing weekly stories for my French class with Llyane is that it gives me the chance to relive great times spent traveling in France.

I thoroughly enjoy recounting our travels through these stories, sorting through photos of the trip and, of course, polishing my French grammar. I also enjoy improving my prononciation when I read the stories to Llyane. Being in control of all aspects of the language is definitely empowering!

As you will see in the story, we really short-changed ourselves on time when we visited Nancy but we still saw some amazing sites and made wonderful memories.

Nancy

 

Il y a plus de 20 lieux en France classés au patrimoine mondiale et un d’eux est Nancy.

Le point culminant de notre brève visite était la Place Stanislas.

La grandiose porte de fer forgé avec guilde ornée nous a donné le sens d’être en
Autriche. Elle m’a rappelé de la Square Amadeus en Salzburg. Cette belle place a été
construite par le Duc Stanislas, duc de Lorraine, dans les années 1700, pour honorer
son gendre Louis XV de France.

L’Arc Héré qui joigne la Place Stanislas et la Place de la Carrière est aussi en honneur de Louis XV. Le modèle pour cet arc de triomphe a été l’arc Septimius Severus à Rome.

Les Portes de la Ville

En plus, les portes de la ville de Nancy sont impressionnantes. La porte de Craffe est la plus ancienne fortification en Nancy. Ses tours lui donnent l’apparence d’un château.

Il y a une fois que ses tours étaient utilisées comme une prison. Une autre porte, la porte de la Citadelle, a été construite par Charles III. Dans une niche au-dessus de la passerelle, on trouve une statue de Charles III.

La Cathédrale de Nancy

L’intérieur de la cathédrale Notre-Dame-de-l'Annonciation de Nancy est très beau.
Cependant, c’était la fresque de la coupole avec 150 personnages de la Bible qui m’a
impressionnée. Figurez-vous qu’elle a 15 mètres de diamètre !

À ne pas manquer

Si vous arrivez à Nancy par voiture, ne manquez pas de visiter la ville de Commercy à
l’ouest de Nancy. Commercy est la patrie de la madeleine. La ville est proche de Nancy
et on doit profiter de leurs madeleines chaudes à l’usine.

Miam-miam !
