Mesch is a village in the Dutch province of Limburg.
It is located in the municipality of Eijsden-Margraten, quite near to the southerly border with Belgium, on the other side of which the neighouring village of Moelingen is situated. In its northwest Mesch borders to Eijsden, whereas the town of Maastricht lies about 10 km more northerly. Mesch was a separate municipality until 1943, when it was merged with Eijsden.`
The relatively small Voer river, coming from Belgium, passes among others through this village, before draining into the Meuse river at Eijsden.
The touristic Mergellandroute also passes through this place.
