La Brocante Charles III

La Brocante Charles III: The Monthly Rendezvous for Nancy's Treasure Hunters

Since its creation in 2020, La Brocante Charles III has established itself as a must-visit event on the Nancy antique scene. Each month, from March to October, about twenty professional antique dealers set up on Place Charles III to offer treasure hunters a curated selection of vintage and antique items, in a remarkable heritage setting in the heart of Nancy's Ville Neuve.

An Exceptional Heritage Setting

Place Charles III, named after the Duke of Lorraine who founded the Ville Neuve in the 16th century, is a place steeped in history. Bordered by the Saint-Sébastien shopping center, the covered market, and the classical and baroque Saint-Sébastien church, this square is an emblematic crossroads in Nancy, between Rue Saint-Dizier and Rue des Quatre-Églises. The flea market stalls are displayed in an architectural setting that echoes the objects from another era offered by the exhibitors.

Demanding Professionals

Unlike car boot sales open to individuals, La Brocante Charles III is exclusively reserved for antique and second-hand dealers. The exhibitors, carefully selected, offer vintage items, antique furniture, posters, old papers, comic books, books, vinyl records, jewelry, and quality second-hand clothing. The sale of counterfeit goods is strictly prohibited, guaranteeing visitors an authentic and well-curated selection.

An Event Rooted in Nancy's Life

Organized by the association Esprit Libre, La Brocante Charles III contributes to the commercial and cultural animation of Nancy's city center. Its monthly schedule, from March to October, makes it a regular fixture for collectors and the curious. The proximity of the covered market and the shops on Rue Saint-Dizier allows visitors to combine their flea market visit with Saturday morning errands, in a typical Nancy urban strolling atmosphere.
