Triumphal arch erected to the glory of Louis XV, on the site of the former Royal Gate, north of the Stanislas square in Nancy

Erected to the glory of Louis XV between 1753 and 1755, this triumphal arch located north of the Place Stanislas originally had a fortification role and was connected to the ramparts that separated the Old City from the New City. The Héré Arch was built on the site of the former Royal Gate built by Louis XIV. Symbolically representing war and peace, the monument was inspired by the arches of Constantine and Septimius Severus in Rome. The statue of Stanislas, on the square of the same name, points its finger in the direction of this building.

l'arc Héré : conçu par l'architecte Héré à la demande du roi Stanislas, cet arc de triomphe est magnifique .Il relie la place Stanislas à la place de la Carrière. Nous sommes sur la célèbre place pavée inondée de soleil, depuis son piédestal, Stanislas pointe son doigt en direction de cet arc. On y va: un peu de fraicheur sous cet arc et on quitte les ors de la place Stanislas et on découvre la place de la Carrière aux arbres impeccablement taillés, et tout au bout l'hémicycle de la place du gouvernement (magnifique!!). Dommage qu'on ne puisse pas le visiter: grimper à l'intérieur, se trouver au dessus et admirer la ville vieille: le réve

“Splendide arc de triomphe à la gloire de Louis XV !”
Ce superbe Arc relie la place Stanislas à la place Carrière. Directement inspiré des arcs romains mais aussi dans la tradition de ce qui se faisait à l'époque de la monarchie absolue versaillaise. Très bien nettoyé. Complète parfaitement la perspective de la place Stanislas.
