Téteghem (French pronunciation: [tetɡɛm]; Dutch and West Flemish: Tetegem) is a former commune in the Nord department, northern France.

This suffix meaning house, dwelling or village became -Ghem.

In the tenth and eleventh centuries, the territory depends on the powerful châtellerie Bergues until the annexation of territory with the acquisition of Flanders to the English by Louis XIV in 1662.

Téteghem went down the sea, its area of 1924 hectares of which must be removed from the territory of Rosendal become Rosendaël in 1860 and the Place of Uxem, attached to Uxem in 1996.

In the Second World War, Téteghem formed part of the perimeter defences during the Battle of Dunkirk in 1940.
