Day 1
The Musée de l'École de Nancy, Art Nouveau at its finest
A full day devoted to the movement that made Nancy a capital of Art Nouveau: furniture by Gallé and Majorelle, glasswork, woodwork and a winter garden, in a mansion whose visit extends to the neighbouring Villa Majorelle.
Day 2
Place Stanislas and its treasures
From Jean Lamour's gilded gates to King Stanislas' throne room: morning on the Unesco-listed square, afternoon in the Beaux-Arts museum that occupies part of it, spanning collections from the Middle Ages to modern art.
