France: The Jardin Dominique Alexandre Godron in Nancy

The Jardin Dominique Alexandre Godron (1 hectare) is a historic botanical garden covering an area of 1 hectare, that located at 3 rue Sainte-Catherine in Nancy, Meurthe-et-Moselle, Lorraine, France.
The garden was founded in 1758 by Stanisław Leszczyński, the last Duke of Lorraine, as an adjunct to the Royal College of Medicine. It is the city's oldest botanical garden, and remained active as such until 1993 when its collections were transferred to the larger Jardin botanique du Montet outside the central city. It was named in honor of celebrated local botanist Dominique Alexandre Godron (1807-1880), who redesigned and reinvigorated the garden during his tenure as director, and now displays horticultural collections in its long, narrow beds.
