Bar-le-Duc

Magic and Renaissance...

BAR-LE-DUC in Meuse, united with Lorraine in 1420, an exceptional voyage into the golden age of the Dukedom of Bar: the Renaissance.

The magic of the high town and its dense concentration of magnificent dwellings from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, discover Saint-Etienne church and “le Transi” a masterpiece from the famous sculptor Ligier-Richier.

The best time to visit is at the height of the Lorraine summer, during the sensational RenaissanceS Festival.
