Nettancourt

Nettancourt (French pronunciation: [nɛtɑ̃kuʁ]) is a commune in the Meuse department in Grand Est in north-eastern France.

The village lies on the right bank of the Chée, which flows southward through the eastern part of the commune.

Mayors of Nettancourt :

Like several French cities, Nettancourt has bric-a-brac sales in summer time.

"Nettancourt" appears in 1179. It should be a name of a man + curtius (lat.). The name should be a male German one.
"Nettancourt" is also an aristocratic family name (see Famous people from Nettancourt).

Nettancourt is close to a famous Roman road (it joins up Reims to Toul cities). Archaeological Gallo-Roman remains (like pieces of pottery and ancient currencies) were found in the area.

Nettancourt is an old fief belonging to Champagne.

A Protestant community lived in the village between 1561 and 1685, protected by the lords of Nettancourt, converted to Calvinism.
