Provenchères-sur-Fave is a commune in the Vosges department in Lorraine in northeastern France. Inhabitants are called ''Provenchérois''. Provenchères-sur-Fave should not be confused with Provenchères-lès-Darney in the same department. ==Geography== The population of the commune is divided between the village of Provenchères and surrounding hamlets such as Brafosse. As its name indicates, the commune is positioned beside the Fave river, on its left bank. The Fave is a tributary of the Meurthe. Provenchères-sur-Fave is on the western side of the Vosges Mountains. On the horizon the neighbouring conifer dressed hills of triassic sandstone stand out clearly: to the west the Ormont Mountain has its peak, at 900 meters, well clear of the tree line. The Spitzemberg at just 640 meters which at one time hosted an observation fortress dominates the valley: further along the same range are the isolated Voyemont (793 meters) and the high plateau of Climont (965 meters) towards the north-east. Nevertheless, within the territory of the commune itself stretched between the Fave Valley and the foot of the Spitzemberg, the altitude rises only to 651 meters, above the hamlet of Truches, and near to the old road connecting with the Grande Fosse pilgrimage route. The village is crossed by the national road RN 420 which connects it with Saint-Dié some to the southeast and, via a not particularly direct crossing of the Vosges Mountains, Strasbourg to the north-east. The western access point to the recently reopened Tunnel Maurice-Lemaire through the mountains towards Selestat is some to the south-east. The commune is fully within the Ballons of the Vosges Natural Park. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Provenchères-sur-Fave」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
