About this Nancy map poster
Nancy's plan holds two cities in one. To the north lies the Ville-Vieille, the medieval town of the Dukes of Lorraine, with its winding streets around the ducal palace. To the south, Duke Charles III laid out the Ville-Neuve at the end of the sixteenth century as a regular grid of straight streets. The link between them is the chain of squares built under Stanislas Leszczyński in the eighteenth century.
Place Stanislas, Place de la Carrière and Place d'Alliance are listed together as a UNESCO World Heritage site, and on a map they form a clear axis. Next to them the Parc de la Pépinière provides a large green block. Nancy is also the home of the École de Nancy, and its Art Nouveau houses are spread across the later districts to the west.
A Nancy map poster shows that layered plan at a glance. The Meurthe and the Marne–Rhine canal run along the eastern side, the railway cuts across to the west, and the hills rise beyond. In black and white, the contrast between the crooked medieval lanes and the ruled grid is the whole story.

Ville-Vieille and Ville-Neuve
Irregular medieval streets to the north meet the straight grid of Charles III to the south. Two eras of planning sit side by side.
Meurthe and canal
The river and the Marne–Rhine canal run parallel along the eastern side of the city, drawing two close lines of water on the poster.

Why Nancy
A map that means something
Nancy is a city people remember: students of its universities, admirers of Art Nouveau, anyone who has crossed Place Stanislas at night. The map is a considered keepsake of a very deliberate plan.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates, perhaps with a graduation year or an address, and choose from five styles. The Blueprint style suits Nancy's architecture especially well. It is available as $9 HD files or as a printed poster with an optional frame.
