Church of the Cordeliers having taken place under the protection of the Virgin(Virgo) of the Annunciation during the battle of Nancy, the duke come back to life II decides to establish, near the new palace, a church which is devoted to him(her). Cordeliers' convent is built close by, on the location of the old(former) stables of the palace. Of a big(great) sobriety, the church Saint François des Cordelier spreads(displays) an unique(only) nave, 73 metres long, lined with side chapels receiving the funerary monuments of certain dukes of Lorraine. The duke dies in 1508 and is the first duke buried in the church. The church of the Cordeliers, always devoted to the Catholic religion, is a part of the Lorraine Museum today. It is possible to see works there come from all Lorraine, as wooden stalls resulting(coming) from the Abbey of Salival and dating of 1691, installed(settled) in the chorus(choir).
Chapel Ducale Voulue by the duke Charles III, the "round" chapel of the Cordeliers is built under the reign of his son Henry II between 1609 and 1612, undoubtedly on the plans of the Italian architect Jean-Baptiste Stabili. Building with centered plan, the chapel is topped with a polygonal dome adorned with 386 boxes sculpted by angels, by stars and by the figures of the dukes Charles III, Henry II, François II and Charles IV, due to the sculptor Siméon Drouin (on 1591? – On 1651). The internal decoration(set) of the chapel is finished(ended) in the 18th century by François III (François Ier de Hapsburg), last hereditary duke of Lorraine, who makes add both orders stacked(superimposed) by columns, cenotaphs and high altar. Seriously mutilated in Revolution, the chapel is restored by the family of Hapsburg-Lorraine in 1817\.
