Villers-Faucon
Villers-Faucon () is a commune in the Somme department in Hauts-de-France in northern France. Geography The commune is situated 15 miles (24 km) northwest of Saint-Quentin, at the D72 and D101 crossroads, in the far east of the département. The commune also includes the hamlet of Sainte-Emilie. Population History According to Abbot Decagny of Roisel, Villers-Faucon was originally Villers-Falcon and previously Villare Falconis, which means, in Latin, villa of the hawks. Villers-Faucon's original purpose was that of a falconry, located in the heart of the forest of Arrouaise. The village was almost totally destroyed in 1916, during the First World War. Following a withdrawal of German troops around the Hindenburg line, the inhabitants were evacuated to the north to Denain, tons of dynamite were set off around all of the buildings in the town (including the sugar refinery at St. Emilie) and all the trees were cut down, to leave the field open for the approach of troo ...

''Le faucon'' ( en, The Falcon, Russian: ) is an ''opéra comique'' in three acts by the Ukrainian composer Dmitry Bortniansky with a French language libretto by . It was first performed on 11 October 1786 at the Gatchina Palace in Russia by aristocratic amateur singers. The plot is borrowed from Boccaccio's ''The Decameron'' ( Fifth Day, 9th tale) which also served as the basis for Pierre-Alexandre Monsigny's 1771 comic opera ''Le faucon'' (libretto by Michel-Jean Sedaine) (and later for Gounod's ''La colombe''). Two arias from the opera, "Le beau Tirsis" and "Adieu, Adieu", were published in a 1793 collection of songs by Bortniansky (''Recueil de romances et chansons'', St. Petersburg: Breitkopf).
