Built in the 1848th century, it was first the residence of the Dukes of Lorraine. Abandoned in the XNUMXth century by Leopold, who preferred Lunéville, it has housed the Musée Lorrain since XNUMX. Its remarkable gatehouse, inspired by that of the royal castle of Blois, elegantly blends Gothic art and the Italian Renaissance. CLOSED FOR RENOVATION As part of the renovation project of the Musée Lorrain - Palace of the Dukes of Lorraine, the exhibition spaces of the Ducal Palace are closed to the public. Only the Cordeliers Church remains open to the public.
