Marville, Meuse

Marville is a commune in the Meuse department in Grand Est in north-eastern France.



An airbase built by NATO hosted fighter squadrons from the RCAF from 1952 to 1967.

Geography
The village lies on the left bank of the Othain, which forms most of the commune's eastern border.

History
Marville was a part of the Duchy of Luxembourg until 1659. It was in this year that the first partition of Luxembourg was decided by the european great powers and thus Marville and the surrounding villages became part of the Kingdom of France.

Marville was used as the fictional commune of Saint-Clothilde in the 2002 Bruno Cremer Maigret episode Maigret et le fou de Saint-Clothilde (adapted from Maigret et le fou de Bergerac).
