La Porte de la Craffe est le dernier vestige encore en élévation des fortifications médiévales de Nancy. Entrée Nord de la ville, elle a été édifiée au milieu du VIXe siècle. A sa création, la porte ne comporte pas les deux tours circulaires qui la dominent aujourd'hui.Elles compléteront l'ouvrage vers 1462-63. Son architecture médiévale se caractérise par ses mâchicoulis, ses fenêtres à volet et ses bretèches.
