Roman

The village Ablo-Villa, literally the domain of Hablon, was probably born in the Gallo-Roman era. Venus was worshiped near the Pirouet spring where two Tanagra figurines were found, and now stored in the National Archaeological Museum of France in Saint-Germain-en-Laye.

Middle Ages

The 11th Centaury saw a primitive church in the same spot as the current church, with text dated 1053 bearing the signature of William the Conqueror and Queen Mathilde was ceded by the lords of Bellême and given to the Abbey of Saint Julien in Tours. The Church was reconstructed in eth 13th centaury with two chapels, Saint-Michel and Saint-Jacques, being built in the 15th Centaury.

In the Middle Ages the village experienced a certain prosperity as it is on a pilgrimage route to Mont-Saint-Michel and Santiago de Compostela.

15th to 19th century

An area of Habloville, the stronghold of Noirville, was purchased in the 15th century by the Fouasse family, who took on the name, to become the Fouasse de Noirville Marquis. They owned the area until 1789 after an uprising of the local peasants.

Near the end of the 18th century, a Chappe telegraph was built in Habloville near the Château du Jardin in Bissey. On 29 May 1799 a small group of Chouans surrounded by 3,000 Republican soldiers fell back towards the telegraph, defended only by its employees. They were savagely murdered and the square tower supporting the great arms set on fire. After its reconstruction in 1800, the telegraph operated until the early 1850s.

Lime kilns were built between the areas of Monts and Noirville in the 18th century and used up until the 19th century. The kilns were in use until 1870 when they were shut down due to the use of chemical fertilizers in agriculture and of cement in construction.

20th century

Habloville was liberated from the Germans on the 18 August 1944. The 10th SS Panzer Division Frundsberg defended the village against the Allied forces to hold an opening for the encircled German forces in the Falaise pocket. In their hurry to flee the offensive, the Germans left many items behind, including the 10.5 cm leFH 18 howitzer that is now displayed next to the war memorial.
