Raves (French pronunciation: [ʁav] ⓘ) is a commune in the Vosges department in Grand Est in northeastern France.
The earliest surviving record of the village comes from a document of 1329 in which it is called Rayves.
Raves during the ancien regime period fell under the bailiwick of Saint-Dié.
Under the administrative settlement established after the French Revolution, the commune came under the canton of Bertrimoutier.
The present administrative framework is based on the one established some ten years later under Napoleon I.
