Town Presentation

Second city of Maas counting objects or monuments "historic monument", the story begins Marville the Middle Ages, when mighty Lord, Count Theobald of Bar 1st seizes Marville to erect a fortress. It frees the city's law Beaumont, very friendly people, and married the Countess Ermesinde Luxembourg.

The heirs of Hermesinde divest the city of the Counts of Bar and Luxembourg, causing a possession for four centuries between the two counties. This period is called "common land". It is characterized by a neutral benefit to the inhabitants of Marville during the tumultuous period of feudal wars.

Marville enriched this favorable position and will culminate at the Renaissance in the 16th and 17th centuries.
