Agenville (French pronunciation: [aʒɑ̃vil]; Picard: Adinville) is a commune in the Somme department in Hauts-de-France in northern France.

Geography

[edit]

The commune is a village of mixed farming situated 25 km (16 mi) northeast of Abbeville on the D56 road. It is surrounded by the communes Domléger-Longvillers, Conteville and Prouville.

History

[edit]

Destroyed by the English at the time of the battle of Crecy in 1346 and rebuilt on a new site. Rebuilt after the bombardments of 1944, when 95% of the village was destroyed, as the V1 rocket site was nearby. Agenville was once a centre of a pilgrimage.
