Uichteritz German pronunciation: [ˈʏçtəʁɪt͡s] is a village and a former municipality in the Burgenlandkreis district, in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany.
Medium-sized courtyards, well-preserved half-timbered buildings as well as newly constructed one-and two-family houses dot the village.
It was primarily Sorbs who settled in this region as evidenced by archeological finds, as well as placenames with the ending "-itz".
The Saale broke its banks in 1784 and flooded the village, collapsing 44 houses, sheds and stables.
[citation needed] On 1 January 2010 the previously independent villages of Uichteritz, Markwerben and Langendorf were annexed by Weißenfels.
