The Ruisseau de Corps Fontaine flows through the area of ​​the town center to the Madon, whose side valley interrupts the up to 70 meter high bank slopes on the Madon. The Ruisseau de Ceval , which also flows into the Madon, forms the northwestern municipal boundary of Ceintrey. In the extreme south, Ceintrey has a share in the striking, two kilometers to the east bulging river loop of the Madon, which resembles the tip of a lance.

history

Ceintrey was first mentioned in 1183 in a deed of donation from the Bishop of Toul, Pierre de Brixey to the Clairlieu monastery, in connection with a Stephanus de Synterei .

The Saint-Remy church was built in the 18th century.

A special feature is the agglomeration of the municipalities of Ceintrey and Voinémont , which have grown together geographically and are only administratively separated. The border between the two communities runs through the middle of a built-up area. About the 2012 created Community of Communes Pays du Saintois who belong to both communities, issues of regional planning, economic development, and not least the maintenance of primary schools are regulated jointly.
