Alland'Huy-et-Sausseuil is a French commune in the Ardennes department in the Grand Est region of northern France.
Alland'Huy-et-Sausseuil is located some 10 km east of Rethel and 35 km south-west of Charleville-Mézières. The D30 road from Amagne to Écordal passes through the northern part of the commune. The village can be accessed off the D30 via the D14 which passes through the village then continues east to Charbogne. There is also the D43 road from just south of Écordal which passes south through the commune to Saulces-Champenoises. A branch railway line passes through the commune from Lucquy station in the west to the station just south of the village and the line continues south-east to Attigny station. Apart from the village the commune consists entirely of farmland.
La Foivre stream flows south through the eastern part of the commune and continues to join the Aisne south of the commune. There are several other small streams in the east of the commune and the Ruisseau de Saulces in the west.
This commune was occupied by the Germans during the First World War and again during the Second. The village was partially destroyed.
On 6 April 1944 six people were arrested on the Chesnois farm and deported for helping airmen of the U.S. Air Force, whose aircraft were shot down, to evade capture by the Germans.
