Uckange (French pronunciation: [ykɑ̃ʒ]; German: Ückingen; Lorraine Franconian: Ickéng/Ickéngen) is a commune in the Moselle department in Grand Est in north-eastern France.

The town experienced its greatest expansion at the end of the 19th century, with the establishment of STUMM font factories.

Today this factory, which produced cast iron, is closed since 1991, but a blast furnace, the U4, remains and is considered as a historical monument.

Indeed, it was located near the Roman road leading to Trier, on the banks of the Moselle, which has had a railway network since 1850.
