Beneath Place Stanislas’s golden gates, footsteps echo from centuries of intrigue—Nancy guards its secrets in the open, dazzling and defiant.

This self-guided audio tour leads deeper than postcard views, unlocking side streets and striking monuments where hidden stories linger. Find the drama most visitors miss and feel the city’s true pulse beneath your feet.

What royal scandal once unfolded between the elegant facades of Place de la Carrière? Whose desperate escape was plotted in the hush of the Basilica of Saint-Epvre? Why did a storm of protest transform a quiet square overnight into a battlefield of banners and voices?

Move through grand avenues and shadowed arcades, uncovering betrayals, wonders, and whispered legends. With each step, the spirit of Nancy sharpens—mysterious, rebellious, unforgettable. The past breathes as you walk, remaking every lacework balcony and sunlit stone.

Begin the journey and let Nancy reveal the hidden power behind her golden gates.
