History
On July 15, 1972, the neighboring communes of Meroux and Moval merged, forming an association that allowed for the possibility of separation at a later date. This separation took place on January 1, 1997, restoring the two communes as independent entities.[4]
On January 1, 2019, Meroux and Moval returned to their 1972 boundaries following a prefectural decree issued on December 21, 2018.[5]
