Toponymy

History


Nettancourt is close to a famous Roman road (it joins up Reims to Toul cities). Archaeological Gallo-Roman remains (like pieces of pottery and ancient currencies) were found in the area.

Nettancourt is an old fief belonging to Champagne.

A Protestant community lived in the village between 1561 and 1685, protected by the lords of Nettancourt, converted to Calvinism.

Nettancourt suffers a lot from the First World War (1914–18). One day, to escape to a German offensive, the residents had to leave their village. During this time, German soldiers sat for a moment in several houses.

There are ten names in the war memorial, mobilized at the beginning of the war. They fought bravely to liberate their home.
