Origin and history

The building on 2 rue des Etats in Nancy is an emblematic 17th century building, typical of the civil architecture of this period. Its courtyard façade, adorned with galleries, was protected by a registration order under the Historic Monuments on May 15, 1944. This ranking reflects its heritage interest, although details of its history and occupants remain partially documented.

The location of the building, in the historic centre of Nancy, reflects the city's urban planning under the Old Regime, marked by stone constructions and interior courtyards. At that time, such buildings often housed bourgeois families or artisans, playing a central role in the economic and social life of the city.

Available sources, including the Merimée and Monumentum database, indicate a specific address (2 rue des Etats) and an approximate GPS location (101 Grande Rue), suggesting possible confusion or evolution of urban names. The accuracy of the location is assessed as "a priori satisfactory" (note 7/10), while photographs licensed under Creative Commons (credit: Pymuss) visually document the monument.

No information is provided on any owners, architects or significant events related to this building. Its current condition (opened/closed to visit) and its contemporary uses (rent, guest rooms) are not specified in the available data.

The department of Meurthe-et-Moselle (code Insee 54395), on which Nancy depends, is located in the Grand Est region, formerly Lorraine. This territorial context places the building in a larger architectural complex, characteristic of the Lorraine cities of the modern era.

The protected elements are limited to the courtyard façade with its galleries, without mentioning other parts of the building or classified movable objects. The 1944 Decree is the only legal and historical landmark formally documented in the sources consulted.
