Croissanville

Croissanville was a small village, known as a "commune," located in northwestern France. It was part of the Calvados area, which is a "department" (like a county). This department is found within the Normandy "region" of France.

On January 1, 2017, Croissanville joined with several other nearby villages. They all merged together to form a new, larger commune called Mézidon Vallée d'Auge. This means Croissanville is no longer a separate commune on its own.
