Gorcy is a commune, located in the department of Meurthe-et-Moselle and the Grand Est region, France.This village on the north of the Meurthe-et-Moselle is next to the Belgian frontier, and about 10 km from Longwy, main city of the "Pays-Haut".In 1832, Jean Joseph Labbé built a first blast furnace in Gorcy, on the Parivaux. From 1846 to 1848, two new blast furnaces were built. The factory, partially destroyed during the war of 1870, is rebuilt and set in rights. In 1877, the two blast furnaces were removed and replaced by two other more powerful. Before World War I, the Société métallurgique de Gorcy still exploited two blast furnaces which disappeared in the 1930s.
