Parc de la Cure d'Air, Urban park on Haut-de-Chèvre hill in Nancy, France.
Located at 300 meters above sea level, this 2.5-hectare park provides panoramic views across the city of Nancy and surrounding landscapes.
Established in 1900 as a convalescence center, the park gained popularity with the installation of a funicular in 1905 before becoming public space in 1991.
The park maintains its heritage through preserved apple and pear tree varieties, reflecting the agricultural traditions of the Lorraine region.
The park welcomes visitors of all ages with dedicated children's play areas, walking paths, and facilities that accommodate both individuals and groups.
The former funicular, which operated until a tragic accident in 1908, connected the park to Nancy's lower areas, marking an early example of urban transportation innovation.
