La Bresse, Mountain commune in Vosges, France.

Located in northeastern France at an elevation of 635 meters, La Bresse extends across 157 square kilometers within the Moselotte River valley.

During World War II in 1944, artillery fire destroyed much of the town center, forcing residents to evacuate through combat zones until French troops arrived.

The municipal council established in 2002 includes children representatives from local schools who participate in community decisions and project planning.

La Bresse offers administrative services through the Communauté de Communes des Hautes Vosges, which coordinates regional development and public facilities.

The municipal forest of La Bresse covers 3,000 hectares, making it the largest communal forest in the Vosges department.
