Reclinghem (French pronunciation: [ʁəklɛ̃ɡɑ̃]; West Flemish: Reklingem) is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Hauts-de-France region of France.
[3] It was settled by the Viking Rikiwulf (the rich and powerful wolf) in the 9th century, who probably also settled nearby Richebourg and Rijkeghem in present Tielt, Belgium.
[citation needed] Reclinghem lies about 12 miles (19 km) south of Saint-Omer, on the D104 road, by the banks of the river Lys.
