Don't skip the visitors center where there is an interesting exhibit on the history of the cemetery and some of its "inhabitants".

Gros Ouvrage Maginot du Hackenberg

Reviewed By MartijnDdorf - Ruhr Area, Germany

We enjoyed visiting the Ouvrage Hackenberg, dug into the Hackenberg hill. By taking the internal train to combat block 9 you understand how big this fortress is. Our guide Alain gave a passionate tour as his grandfather was a soldier at the Ouvrage during WW2. Seeing the turret in block 9 in action, from the in- and outside, was impressive. Be prepared that most guides only speak French and make sure to bring warm clothes, as the tour takes 2,5 hours and the inside temperature is 12 degrees C all year round.

Musee de l'Ecole de Nancy

Reviewed By VisitorFromIsrael

Great place for any Art Nouveau lover- and if you are not, then simply look for another places. Variety of Art Nouveau works by Galle, Majorelle, Daum and more. Artists that worked in Nancy. Be it wood, porcelain, glass or metal, superb works with complete rooms decorated in Art Nouveau style. Small nice garden surrounds the museum- just if you need some rest and a change of views. If you head after this to the Majorelle house, make sure you make a booking in advance. We were refused entrance due to not being able to book in advance.

La Cour d'Or

Collection of museums that reflect the wealth of art and history through the ages.

Reviewed By 252MarkS252 - Willunga, Australia

This is a great regional museum with a fantastic collection of Gallo-Roman materials. Some great mosaics. In the basement is a Roman bathhouse and there are some spectacular painted Medieval ceilings and beams. We were there for more than 2 hours. Highly recommended.
