Logne Castle is a stronghold built on a rocky spur at the confluence of the Ourthe and the Lembrée, at Logne in the municipality of Ferrières in the province of Liège (Belgium).
Built at the beginning of the 12th century as the western defence of the Principality of Stavelot, it was destroyed in 1521 during the conflict between Charles V and Francis I. Its remains are listed as part of the immovable heritage of Wallonia.
