history

Former names of the village Nompatelize were Nompardi Villa, Nopardi Ecclesia and Nompalteinglise . The village was under the spell of the nearby Etival Abbey with its own parish. In 1594 Nompatelize belonged to the Bailiwick of Nancy and was under the provost of Saint-Dié and the Etival Abbey. In 1751 the village was dependent on the Bailiwick of Saint-Dié and in 1790, at the time the parishes were founded, Nompatelize was part of an urban canton in Saint-Dié. In 1635 and 1636 the village was heavily sacked by Swedish troops and in 1870 by German troops. Ecclesiastically, Nompatelize belonged to the Salm deanery . In 1723, the Etival Abbey donated the funds to build the village church of Saint-Èvre and to build the cemetery. In 1786 the church was reconstructed. The buildings of the Mairie , the boys 'and the girls' school were built in 1883.
