Origin and history

The Hôtel d'Haussonville is an iconic mansion in Nancy, built between 1528 and 1543 by Jean d'Haussonville, Sénéchal de Lorraine. This monument illustrates the Renaissance style with sober facades on Rue Saint-Michel and an open courtyard, mixing Gothic and Renaissance influences. The courtyard houses a fountain of Neptune, adding to the architectural harmony of the ensemble. This hotel is considered one of the most beautiful Renaissance examples of Nancy, alongside the Palais des Ducs de Lorraine and the Hôtel de Lillebonne.

In the 18th century, the Haussonville family ceded the hotel, which changed owners several times before being bought by Joseph d'Haussonville between 1849 and 1851. After his son Paul-Gabriel died in 1924, the hotel was sold by his heirs. In 1984, its facades, roofs and some 18th-century salons were classified or listed as historical monuments. Since 2003, the mansion has been home to a 4-star hotel, after its renovation by Laurence and Jean-Claude Capelli.

Located at the corner of Monseigneur-Trouillet and Saint-Michel streets, in the Old Town of Nancy, the Hôtel d'Haussonville combines historical heritage and modernity. Its architecture, marked by open galleries and preserved interior decoration, bears witness to the importance of the Renaissance in Lorraine. Today, there remains a place of prestige, combining architectural heritage and contemporary comfort.
