The IC's are diffused in several different fabs, and packaged in several different locations.

Both these can be determined from the markings and product labels on the packaging.

Most I've seen come out the Crolles/France line

Is there a certain place to look for that information if I do not have the packaging labels anymore? I tried looking on the data sheets but nothing in those sheets mentions its country of origin.

Perhaps take a picture of the part, and attach, and we can discuss it, specifically?

No, because its not fixed, and subject to change

The VQ marking is for Crolles

CHN GH/GQ is packaged/tested in China, there might be additional locations

The PCN are frequently available via distributors, or your local sales/support office.

Some STM32 are diffused in multiple TSMC locations around the globe, including the USA and TAIWAN, concurrently.
