Nancy's oldest and most monumental gateway, one of the city's most emblematic monuments.

One of the most emblematic monuments of the old city! Both the oldest and the most monumental of all Nancy's gates, the Porte de la Craffe was built at the end of the 14th century to protect the city during its expansion. Its windows were arranged to facilitate firing and its bretches had an overhang to bombard the enemy with projectiles and boiling liquids. The building has undergone many modifications but has lost none of its splendor. It closes the Grande-Rue, the commercial artery in the old town.

Belle porte, qui donne l'impression d'une partie d'un château avec ses deux tours qui l'entourent.

La porte de la Craffe : c'est un des plus vieux monuments de Nancy; elle porte une date sur son fronton:1416. Elle fait partie des portes qui enserrent Nancy. Elle a été modifiée, on lui a ajouté deux tours. Elle est toujours là. Jadis, il y avait une prison à l'intérieur. Elle a méme abrité dans sa partie supérieure au début des années 60 le secrétariat de la faculté des sciences toute proche. Elle s'ouvre sur la ville vieille et sa célèbre Grand' Rue. Restaurée au début du siècle, elle est magnifique. Sur l'autre face, plus discrète une autre porte s'offre au regard

imposant vestige des fortifications médiévales - parfaitement conservé et heureusement restauré ces dernières années - qui se dresse dans la vieille ville au bout de la Grand Rue.
