Place d'Alliance, 18th-century royal square in Nancy, France
Place d'Alliance features a central fountain surrounded by symmetrical buildings and four rows of lime trees forming a perfect rectangle.
Emmanuel Héré de Corny designed this square in 1752 as part of a grand urban development project connecting medieval and Renaissance sections of Nancy.
The square represents French classical architecture principles through its geometrical layout and integration with Place Stanislas and Place de la Carrière.
The square maintains its original stone pavement and provides benches under the shade of lime trees for visitors throughout the year.
A monumental fountain with three bronze basins and water-spouting dolphins marks the center of this UNESCO World Heritage site.
