Provenchères-lès-Darney

Provenchères-lès-Darney (French pronunciation: [pʁɔvɑ̃ʃɛʁ lɛ daʁnɛ], literally Provenchères near Darney) is a commune in the Vosges department in Grand Est in northeastern France.

It lies 8 kilometres (5 mi) to the south of Vittel and to the northwest of Darney.

The name "De Provincheriis" is recorded from 1136: this originates with the Latin word "proventus" which may refer to the fruitfulness of the land here.

On the spiritual side, the commune was a part of the deanery of Vittel in the Diocese of Toul.

The lordship of Provenchères was in the possession of the Barons of Deuilly and the Abbey of Luxeuil who received half of the tithe income.
