Frœningen (; ) is a commune in the Haut-Rhin department in Alsace in north-eastern France.

== History == In 1312, Count Ulrich de Ferrette yielded Frœningen to Knight Conrad of Flaxlanden. The village was later ceded to Hadmansdorf in 1458, then to the noble family of Reinach-Heidwiller in 1539. During the Thirty Years' War, the castle was spared, but was finally set on fire by the Swiss in 1468. It was rebuilt in the eighteenth century, but was burned again, following the negligence of a cook, in 1739.
