The place is located on the banks of the Andelle River , 21 kilometers southeast of Rouen . The Lieure, a tributary of the Andelle, flows through the town center. The hamlets of Le Grand Thuit and Colmont are located to the south and north-east of the town center and are surrounded by forest.
history
Charleval was previously called Noyon-sur-Andelle and changed its name in honor of King Charles IX. (1550–1574) after his Castle Charleval . The part of the name Noyon originated from the Celtic place name Noviomagos , which means "new market".
In 1874 a cemetery from the Merovingian period (486–751) was found. In the Carolingian period (751 to 10th century) the village belonged to the Abbey of Saint-Wandrille in Saint-Wandrille-Rançon . The Normans built a castle , the Le Catelier was called.
Henry I of England (1068–1135) had a castle built in 1118 in what was then Noyon-sur-Andelle. The Benedictine priory Saint-Martin was founded in 1108 by Guillaume d'Évreux († 1118). The mother monastery was the Abbey of Saint- Evroult in Saint-Evroult-Notre-Dame-du-Bois . In 1572 the priory was destroyed during the construction of Charleval Castle. The construction work on the castle was interrupted by the death of the king. In 1651 Charleval was promoted to marquisate .
During the French Revolution (1789-1799) the renaming of the village was reversed. In 1793 Charleval received the status of a municipality as Nojeon sur Andelle . In 1801 the place was called Charleval again and received the right to local self-government . In 1809 the former municipality of Transières was incorporated.
During the Second World War (1939-1945) Charleval was bombed on June 5, 1940 by the German Air Force .
