Provenchères-lès-Darney (in French pronounced as /pʁɔvɑ̃ʃɛʁ lɛ daʁnɛ/, literally Provenchères near Darney) is a commune in the Vosges department in Grand Est in northeastern France.
It lies 8km (05miles) to the south of Vittel and to the northwest of Darney.
The name "De Provincheriis" is recorded from 1136: this originates with the Latin word "proventus" which may refer to the fruitfulness of the land here.
In the medieval period Provenchères came under the Bassigny bailiwick and the provostship of Lamarche: subsequently it fell within the bailiwick of Lamarche. On the spiritual side, the commune was a part of the deanery of Vittel in the Diocese of Toul.
The lordship of Provenchères was in the possession of the Barons of Deuilly and the Abbey of Luxeuil who received half of the tithe income.
By a decree of 22 May 1867 the name of the commune was changed from Provenchères to Provenchères-lès-Darney in order to avoid confusion with Provenchères-en-Vosges (which subsequently underwent a name change of its own).
