history

Today's community is first mentioned in a document in 1445 under the name Fleinvalz . Flainval belonged to the bailiwick (Bailliage) Crévic 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 . The place was completely destroyed in the First World War. From 1793 to 1801 the community was assigned to the Lunéville district. Flainval changed cantons several times. From 1793 to 1801 it was part of the canton of Crévic, from 1801 to 2015 of the canton of Lunéville-Nord and since then of the canton of Lunéville-1. Since 1801 Drouville 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 .
