The Christmas tree dazzles the people of Nancy

First fruits of the holidays and a sign that Saint-Nicolas is fast approaching, the Christmas tree amazes young and old alike. The mayor of Nancy welcomes the installation of the tree with joy. It comes at the right time: the ephemeral garden is withdrawing and the king’s statue will soon be restored.

The Christmas tree is also a family affair. Children are in awe of the size of this tree. Planted in 1986 by a family from Gérôme, this tree touches Sylvie, who saw it grow during her childhood. Shared between “joy” and “emotion“, she is happy to see this tree springing up.
