- History of the town:
- It is difficult to say with certainty what date the village has emerged, but the first historical traces found in the writings, as well as parts of the church built at this time, tells us that the story goes Faux-Villecerf at least until the 12th century ...
- At the time, the town consisted of three hamlets: False (which was the bailiwick of Troyes) and Villacerf and Aubeterre (the bailiwick of Sens). But then, why are there more traces of Aubeterre on current maps? Just because this hamlet was between Faux-Villecerf Pâlis and was reduced to ashes during the Hundred Years War! It appears that in 1368, an English band has burned the town, and the inhabitants of Aubeterre survivors chose to live in Saint-Lupien Villacerf and rather than rebuild Aubeterre (sometimes call'd Obterre in cadastral).
- Over the years, the village has changed many times his identity before becoming Suspended Villecef we know, here are some examples of names that were given to him in 1613 Folz-Villecerf in 1618 and False Villecert in 1642 the Fouy Villeser in 1654 and Villecer False.
