history

The current community is indirectly mentioned in 1157 (Alodium de Charmeyaco) in the Latin form Charmeyaco for the first time in a document from the Belchamp Abbey. A first French form appears in a document as Chermoy in the same year. Charmois historically belonged to the Vogtei (Bailliage) Rosières-aux-Salines and thus to the Duchy of Lorraine , which fell to France in 1766. Until the French Revolution , the community was then in the Grand-gouvernement de Lorraine-et-Barrois . From 1793 to 1801 the community was assigned to the Lunéville district. Charmois changed cantons several times. From 1793 to 1801 it was part of the canton of Blainville, from 1801 to 2015 of the canton of Bayon and since then of the canton of Lunéville-2. Since 1801 Charmois has also been assigned to the Arrondissement of Lunéville. Until 1871, the community was in the old Meurt (h) e. Since then it has been part of the Meurthe-et-Moselle department.

traffic

Charmois is close to major transport routes. The Nancy-Épinal-Remiremont railway runs straight through the municipality. But Charmois does not have its own stop. In the neighboring municipality of Damelevières there is a stop on the Nancy-Épinal-Remiremont and Paris-Nancy-Strasbourg lines. The N333 (regional part of the N4 Paris-Nancy-Strasbourg) passes a few kilometers north of the municipality. The closest connections are Chaufontaine in the municipality of Rehainviller, Hudiviller and Dombasle-sur-Meurthe. The D1c, which runs through the village, is important for regional traffic.
