Geography

Semerville is a typical commune of the Beauce. To the principal village the hamlet of Villecellier is added.

History

The human occupation was constant on this very rich arable land. The commune is crossed by the ruins of a Gallo-Roman road known as way of Jules César or way of Chartres , which are also visible on the common neighbors of Verdes, Membrolles and the Dove. Its name is derived from Semervilla , that is to say the field of Sig-mar (Germanic name of man).

With the Middle Ages, the parish belongs to the diocese of Chartres; the church is conceded in XIIe century in Saint-Lomer of Blois by the Yves bishop of Chartres.
