history

In a purchase agreement from 1363, the ruler from the House of Habsburg sells half of the Halewiler community to the Count of Salm. This is the first mention of the Halloville Ward. This was thus divided in the Hundred Years War . Part of today's community was under the Bailiwick of Vic and historically belonged to the province of Trois-Évêchés (Three Bishoprics), which in fact fell to France in 1552. The other part of the municipality belonged legally to the Bailiwick of Blâmont 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 . In the Thirty Years War the community was completely destroyed. Not a single resident survived. Halloville was not repopulated until after 1700. There was destruction in the two world wars. During the First World War, a German bombardment on August 9 and 10, 1914, caused severe damage to the community. Further artillery attacks on both sides caused damage. The village was rebuilt after the First World War instead of on the hill below in the valley floor. From 1793 to 1801 the municipality was assigned to the Blâmont district. And incorporated into the canton of Blâmont from 1793 to 2015. Since then it has been part of the canton of Baccarat. Halloville has been part of the Lunéville arrondissement since 1801. Until 1871, the community was in the old Meurt (h) e. Since then it has been part of the Meurthe-et-Moselle department .
