    The village is located southeast of Belfort, 11km from the latter. Its territory, which covers 116 hectares, is bordered to the north by the Belfort-Mulhouse railway line. It is crossed by the small river La Madeleine which has its source in the Vosges massif, in the village of La Madeleine precisely. The average altitude is 350m.

    History: The history of Novillard begins before 1251 but it is only on this date that we find the name of the village mentioned in an act concerning the priory of Froidefontaine in the form of Nueviller. The stronghold was part of the seigniory of Rougemont-le-Château in 1125, when Frederick I of Ferrette endowed the monastery of Valdieu, currently in the department of Haut-Rhin. A church then existed in Novillard, whose parish also included Eschêne, Autrage and Rechotte, all three currently grouped together in the commune of Autrechêne. Novillard was also the chief town of a town hall depending on the seigniory of Rougemont (of which it marked the southern limit) then the provostship of Angeot, seigniory of Belfort. The fate of the village generally follows that of the surrounding villages: attachment to the domains of the House of Austria from 1350 to 1648. The Saint-Julien church was built in the 1770s. In 1803 the population was 171 inhabitants, and 210 in the 1999 census. The activity of the commune is essentially agricultural.
