Vaeshartelt Castle (in Dutch: Kasteel Vaeshartelt) is a historic building in the Dutch city of Maastricht, in the province of Limburg, situated within the Vaeshartelt estate, in the neighbourhood (buurt) of Meerssenhoven, and built in its present form in 1739, though its origins go back to the Middle Ages. It was for a long time the property of the Cortenbach family and, for a brief period, also of the royal family.
The building is classified as rijksmonument no. 506108 and is now used as a hotel.
