The village is located in the valley of the Semois River at the angle with its affluent the Vierre River . The people who live in the village are called les Bulots or Les Bulaux . Starting in 1340, Les Bulles was an independent seigniory . In 1673, The seigniory of Les Bulles has been annexed to the baronnie of Jamoigne . Origin of the name Les Bulles The strange name Les Bulles might have two possible origins From the French language French word burn br ler . The term br ler refers to the big fire done during the carnival period. From the German language German word b r burias meaning residence . Other origins of the name have been proposed without any real historical background. The final known orthograph of the name Les Bulles is used since 1340 following the writings. The name likely comes from bule or bure , which designates a large square or conical pile of branches, high enough to be burned. The name of Bules is seen in a Latin form, in a charter for the city of Orval in 1174. Later, in 1230 and 1271, Bures is also mentioned. Bures comes from the Latin meaning Burer burn. A bonfire celebration was also lit the annual day of bures, also called day of the brandons. An odd feature of the name is that it does not contract after prepositions.

For information on Gobelin tapestries and carpets see main article Gobelins manufactory Gobelin was the name of a family of dye rs, who in all probability came originally from Reims , and who in the middle of the 15th century established themselves in the Faubourg Saint Marcel, Paris , on the banks of the Bi vre River Bi vre . The first head of the firm was named Jehan d. 1476 . He discovered a peculiar kind of scarlet dyestuff, and he expended so much money on his establishment that it was named by the common people la folie Gobelin . To the dye works there was added in the 16th century a manufactory of tapestry . The family s wealth increased so rapidly that in the third or fourth generation some of them forsook their trade and purchased titles of nobility. More than one of their number held offices of state, among others Balthasar, who became successively treasurer general of artillery, treasurer extraordinary of war, councillor secretary of the king, chancellor of the exchequer, councillor of state and president of the chamber of accounts, and who in 1601 received from Henry IV of France Henry IV the lands and lordship of Brie Comte Robert . He died in 1603. The name of the Gobelins as dyers cannot be found later than the end of the 17th century. In 1662 the works in the Faubourg Saint Marcel, with the adjoining grounds, were purchased by Jean Baptiste Colbert on behalf of Louis XIV of France Louis XIV and transformed into a general upholstery manufactory, the Gobelins manufactory .
