History

The Nom of the village points out that of its founder, Jean of Piglets of Maillane, bishop of Toul and Abbé commendataire of the Abbaye bénédictine of Saint-Avold (1581 - 1624). The Sanglier present on the Blason of the village also points out the Armoiries of the family of Piglets. The ground on which the village of Porcelette is founded belonged to the land fields of the abbey of Saint-Avold, whose Mgr of Piglets of Maillane authorizes the Défrichement for the notable promoters of Boucheporn and Saint-Avold, against certain royalties. Thus is created on the royal field of Chasse of the bishop of Metz, in 1611, a village of about thirty Maison S, with the locality Krienwald or Crewald .

It depends in turn on the canton of Berus in 1790, of the Bisten-in-Saar in 1795, of Sarrelouis in 1802 and finally of Bouzonville in 1815.
