Bütgenbach (French: Butgenbach, Walloon: Bûtba) is a village in the municipality of the same name in the Belgian province of Liège. The municipality is located in the German-speaking eastern part of the country.
The first mention of Bütgenbach dates back to the Carolingians in the 9th century as an outpost of the Büllinger Hof (court). From 1200 to 1214, the area was owned by the Counts of Luxembourg and subsequently, through marriage, by the Duchy of Limburg.
In 1237, the castle was built on a rocky outcrop overlooking the Warche valley. This became the center of a manor called Hof Bütgenbach, which also included the villages of Berg, Elsenborn, Faymonville, Nidrum, Sourbrodt, and Weywertz.
