Rothenfluh is a municipality in the district of Sissach in the canton of Basel-Country in Switzerland.

Rothenfluh is a conglomeration of seven medieval villages: Loglingen, Hendschikon, Söllickken, Werlickhen, Hohlwingen, Gastwingen, and Werdlingen.

In 1196, the site was called "Rotenfluo". Most of the other medieval villages lost population, and Loglingen became the present village. In the 12th century, part of the territory of the municipality belonged to the Catholic Bishop of Basel, and part to the Habsburgs.

In the 16th century, the village became part of the Helvetic Confederation in the district of Gelterkinden. In 1803, it became a municipality of the district of Sissach.

Originally, there were two Catholic parishes, St. Stephan and St. Georg. The two parishes were united in the 13th century.
