Château de Commercy, Baroque castle in Commercy, France

The castle features a central entrance section with four columns, a monumental staircase, and vaulted outbuildings surrounding a court of honor.

Charles Henri de Lorraine, Prince of Vaudémont, initiated the construction of the current castle in 1708, following designs by architects Nicolas d'Orbay and Léopold Durand.

King Stanislas Leszczynski hosted numerous intellectuals at the castle, including Voltaire and Émilie du Châtelet during their visit in 1748.
