Vosges municipality (88170) with 60 inhabitants.
Ollainville,
in
the
Vosges,
has
a
history
that
goes
back
several
centuries:
Middle
Ages:
The
village
is
mentioned
from
this
period
as
a
small
agricultural
town.
It
then
depends
on
local
lordships
and
plays
a
modest
but
active
role
in
the
rural
economy
of
the
region.
17th
century:
Like
many
Lorraine
villages,
Ollainville
is
affected
by
the
Thirty
Years'
War
(1618-1648),
a
period
of
great
instability
that
leads
to
destruction
and
a
fall
in
the
population.
French
Revolution
(1789):
The
Revolution
transforms
the
status
of
the
village,
which
becomes
a
municipality
in
its
own
right.
This
administrative
change
anchors
Ollainville
in
the
new
organization
of
the
French
territory.
19th
century:
Agricultural
development
and
the
establishment
of
new
infrastructures
mark
this
period.
Ollainville
was
then
a
dynamic
village
where
agriculture
prospered,
and
buildings
and
structures
appeared
that
modernized
the
living
environment.
First
and
Second
World
Wars:
The
two
wars
of
the
20th
century
left
deep
scars.
As
in
the
entire
region,
many
inhabitants
were
mobilized,
and
Ollainville
erected
a
war
memorial
in
their
memory,
a
reminder
of
the
impact
of
these
conflicts
on
the
town.
