Neuves-Maisons ({{IPA|fr|nœv mɛzɔ̃}}, literally New Houses) is a commune in the Meurthe-et-Moselle department in North-Eastern France, on the banks of the Moselle.
The city had a great steel industry during the 19th and 20th century.
Neuves-Maisons erected a plaque in the memory of Émilie Busquant, a feminist, anarcho-syndicalist and an anti-colonial activist born in the area, on the fiftieth anniversary of her death in 2003. A 2015 documentary by director Rabah Zanoun introduced a French audience to her forgotten story.{{cite news|last1=Kessous|first1=Mustapha|title=Emilie Busquant, la plus algérienne des Françaises|url=http://www.lemonde.fr/televisions-radio/article/2015/01/26/emilie-busquant-la-plus-algerienne-des-francaises_4563515_1655027.html|access-date=28 February 2017}}
