Great Basilica at the heart of Nancy Vieille Ville. Walking distance from Place Stanislas, Place de la Carriere, Porte de la Craffe and Parc Pepiniere. Surrounded by cool bars and cafes. A must see in Nancy

Absolutely magnificent Gothic style architecture! Most impressive is how the spires looking in proportion to its length from the outside. The stupendously magnificent staircase in the front entrance is spectacular and apparently a gift from Franz Joseph the first of Austria. The canopies, seventy four of them, illuminate the Basilica with tremendously beautiful rosette windows, a gorgeous nave with paintings on canvas and mosaics, are just a fraction of the beauty of this magnificent Basilica. The neo Gothic organ in a grandstand is breathtaking and apparently was awarded the gold medal at the Universal Exhibition in Paris in 1867! It's a classified French historic monument and deservedly so for it possesses some of the most finest details that only a stupendous gothic cathedral I've visited. Welcoming and suitable for all ages and backgrounds.
The architecture is mind blowing
This is a beautiful Basilica, but it is not always open now.
Looks beautiful from the outside, wasn't able to get in unfortunately (was there outside opening hours). You could have a drink on the opposite terrace and gaze at the details ;-)
Great spot.
Never seen a church with so many stained glass windows beautiful
Beautiful church, surrounded by big trees. Situated in the center of the city near lots of other turist attractions, it's easily identified by its massive tower (87 m). The neogothic style is impressive and blends in with the rest of the historical places in Nancy.
