Xouaxange is a Moselle River (Marne-Rhine Canal) barge cruise port and a small village (population under 500) located in France's Moselle department (Grand Est region/fka Alsace). The village is located on the Rhine-Marne Canal (Canal de la Marne au Rhin) - an artificial waterway used mostly by recreational boaters and luxury hotel barges. The 314-km (195-mi) long Marne-Rhine Canal connects Marne River (Vitry-le-Francois) to Rhine River (in Strasbourg).
As barge cruise port, Xouaxange is included in the schedule of one of the world's largest river cruise companies - CroisiEurope. For summer 2021 season, the company had one hotel barge with planned visits to Xouaxange.
