Mont-lès-Lamarche
commune in Vosges, France
Mont-lès-Lamarche (French pronunciation: [mɔ̃ lɛ lamaʁʃ] , literally Mont near Lamarche) is a commune in the Vosges department in Grand Est in northeastern France.
Geography
Mont-lès-Lamarche is positioned 6 kilometres (4 mi) to the south of Lamarche and 10 kilometres (6 mi) to the north of Bourbonne-les-Bains. Monthureux-sur-Saône is 15 kilometres (9 mi) to the east and Jussey is 26 kilometres (16 miles) to the south-south-east. The commune is on the departmental frontier with Haute-Marne, but there is no direct route across thanks to the intervening topography, the highest point of which is the 487 meter high Malaumont. The commune's 182 hectares of forest are, like the hills, concentrated to the west of the little village: these include the Bois Brûlé (literally burnt wood/forest), Bois de la Plaine and the Bois Chava. The appropriately named Bois des Moines (literally monks' wood/forest) was formerly controlled by the Abbots of Morimond.
At the time of the French Revolution the recorded population stood at 357, and it increased to a peak of 465 in 1866. Subsequently, the picture is one of decline: registered population had fallen to just 93 by the end of the twentieth century.
At the start of the twentieth century, much of the land surrounding the village was still devoted to viticulture, but the vineyards have subsequently disappeared.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Mont-lès-Lamarche” as commune in Vosges, France. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as commune in Vosges, France. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Nov 18, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q223585. Authority coordinates are 48.021, 5.808. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1866.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
