Witness to the rich past of the ancient Duchy of Bar and Lorraine. The city of Bar-le-Duc invites you to a revealing visit to the district of its "Ville Haute", one of the most remarkable urban complexes of the French Renaissance. Bar-le-Duc, labelled "City of Art and History", conceals many precious vestiges of 16th century architecture: chiselled pediments, fluted pilasters and even overhanging gargoyles. So many curiosities that remind us of the prestigious past of this place!
