Musée Lorrain, Art museum in Nancy, France
The Lorraine Museum occupies the Palace of the Dukes of Lorraine, featuring collections that span from prehistoric times to the 19th century across 8,000 square meters.
The museum, established in 1848 by the Archaeological Society of Lorraine, experienced a devastating fire in 1871 that interrupted its activities until 1875.
