Julvécourt Aerodrome was a temporary World War I airfield in France, used initially by the French Service Aéronautique, and later by the Air Service, United States Army . It was located 0.4 miles (0.64 km) West of Julvécourt, in the Meuse department in Lorraine in north-eastern France.

The airfield was used from early 1916 by the French Air Services, until spring 1918, with six Bessonneau aircraft wood-and-canvas hangars, west of the village, along the D 21 road.

It was transferred to the American Air Services in the very last days of the war, with I Corps Observation Group HQ and two squadrons (1st Aero Squadron and 12th Aero Squadron) arriving on 3–5 November 1918.

The I Corps Observation Group HQ stayed at Julvécourt until demobilization in April 1919, but the two squadrons had left by the end of November 1918, ultimately bound for occupation forces in Germany.

The field was transferred back to the French authorities and then to agriculture. Today it is a series of cultivated fields with no indications of its wartime use.
