Neighboring communities are Einville-au-Jard in the northeast, Bonviller in the east, Lunéville in the east and southeast, Vitrimont in the southwest, Anthelupt in the west and Maixe in the northwest. The community consists of the village of Deuxville, the hamlets of Le Mouton Noir and Saint-Epvre and some individual farms. The Ruisseau de Deuxville flows north through the municipality . It used to separate the parishes of Deuxville Notre-Dame (-de-la-Outre) and Deuxville-Saint-Epvre.

history

The place was settled early. This was proven by excavations that unearthed finds from the Gallo-Roman period. Today's community is first mentioned in a document in 1147 under the name Deuvile . The ruling families changed in the Middle Ages. During the Thirty Years War , the parishes of Deuxville and Saint-Epvre were completely destroyed by troops passing through. Not a single resident survived this war. Even in 1660 there were only 4 people left in Deuxville. Saint-Epvre remained desolate. It was not until the late 17th and early 18th centuries that Deuxville was repopulated. The municipality historically belonged to the bailiwick (Bailliage) Lunéville 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 and the Lunéville canton. From 1801 to 2015 it was part of the canton of Lunéville-Nord and has been within the canton of Lunéville-1 since then. Since 1801, Deuxville is also 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 .
