About the location

Moyeuvre-Grande
Bourg, 57250 Moyeuvre-Grande
  • Moselle
  • Grand Est
In 871, a charter of the Abbey of Gorze called Moyeuvre-Grande a «manse» acquired by said abbey, and located «in inferiori Modover», which means «at the mouth of the noisy water», or «river». This is our city named and provided with an etymological sire: the «Modover» (from which Moyeuvre derives), which, meanwhile, will be renamed, and will take the name of one of its tributaries, the Conroy.
This industrial city has for a long time derived its fortune from the exploitation of iron deposits and the transformation of the «Minette».
