Hommarting (in French pronounced as /ɔmaʁtɛ̃/;) is a commune in the Moselle department in Grand Est in north-eastern France.
This municipality is located in the historic region of Lorraine and is part of the pays de Sarrebourg.
It is located in the Rhine watershed within the Rhine-Meuse basin. It is drained by the Eichmatte stream, the Muellermatte stream, the Bubenbach stream and the Steiglenbach.[2]
Former names:[3] Humertingen (XVe siècle), Hummertingen (1490), Humertingen and Hommertingen (1525), Humerting (1556), Humerding (1675), Homertingen or Omertingen (1719), Homarting (1756), Hommartin (1793), Hommartingen (1871–1918), Humbertingen (1940–1944).
Hommarting was a former possession of the Weissembourg and Marmoutier abbeys, as well as of the Bishopric of Metz. It was also held in fief by numerous lords (Lutzelbourg, Lening-Réchicourt).
In 1661, with the treaty of Vincennes between the duke of Lorraine and Louis XIV, the commune became French.
