Musée de l'École de Nancy (School of Nancy Museum) Review

The only museum in France devoted to Art Nouveau is housed in an airy turn-of-the-last-century garden-townhouse built by Eugène Corbin, an early patron of the School of Nancy. Re-created rooms show off original works of art by local Art Nouveau glassmakers Emile Gallé, Antonin and Auguste Daume, Amairac Walter, and other artisans. Allow yourself to immerse in the fanciful, highly stylized, curlicue style that crept into interiors and exteriors throughout Nancy in the early 20th century, then became a sensation around the world.
