The Spéléodrome de Nancy is the old(former) gallery of draining of underground water of the tray(plateau) of the Forest of the Hague, realised at the beginning of 1900s to feed the city of Nancy with drinking water. In front of his(her,its) progressive drying up, his(her,its) exploitation(operation) was abandoned(given up) from the thirties. In century, nature resumed(took back) its rights there and realised superb deposits(warehouses) of white calcite transforming the gallery into an exceptional cave in doors even of the ducale city(estate).
Visit allows to discover a particular(special) patrimonial site and a part(party) of the history(story) of Nancy bound(connected) to the annexation of Alsace-Moselle, as well as fossils, of spéléothèmes and a fauna(crowd) stygobie adapted in the middle underground passage.
Visit is rather sports and rather aquatic.
