history

Today's community is indirectly mentioned in 966 (Ecclesia Roserolis in comitatu Mortisna) in the Latin form Roserolis in a document from Vergaville Abbey. A first French form appears in a document as Rosereures in 1238. Rozelieures 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 . In the battle of the Trouée de Charmes in August 1914, Rozelieures was almost completely destroyed. From 1793 to 1801 the community was assigned to the Lunéville district. Rozelieures was part of the canton of Bayon from 1793 to 2015 and has since been incorporated into the canton of Lunéville-2. Since 1801 Rozelieures 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.
