Château Rouge (Red Castle) is a château in the ancienne commune of Bas-Oha, Wanze, Liège Province, Wallonia, Belgium.

The original castle was built in the 11th century, and served as the residence for a religious community. Gutted by a fire in 1885, the current structure was built within the original walls, though the red colour may be an addition to these outer walls during this 19th century rebuild.[1]

Château Rouge, now abandoned, was last used as a nursing home.[1]
