history

Attilloncourt is named after the Franconian name Adalung and means "Adalungshof". In 1477 the village was mentioned as Acloncourt , in 1600 as Atheloncourt and 1617 as Ateloncourt . Attilloncourt was part of the Vic-sur-Seille castellany established in 1234 . The abbey of Sainte-Glossinde in Metz owned land in Attilloncourt.

In 1793 Attilloncourt received in the course of the French Revolution (1789-1799) the status of a municipality and in 1801 the right to local self-government. From 1801 to 1871 it belonged to the former Meurthe department , which was renamed the Meurthe-et-Moselle department in 1871 . In 1871 the community was incorporated into the newly created realm of Alsace-Lorraine of the German Empire due to changes in territory due to the course of the Franco-German War (1870–1871) . The realm of Alsace-Lorraine existed until the end of the First World War (1914–1918) and was then dissolved. Attilloncourt was in the Moselle department at that time, this change was retained in 1918 when Moselle was again assigned to France. As a French-speaking village, Attilloncourt was one of the last 247 parishes whose name was Germanized on September 2, 1915. "Edelinghofen" was the official place name until 1918. The village was badly damaged in the First World War. The Saint-Laurent Church, which was built in 1869, was rebuilt in 1920.
