'''Feluy''' ({{langx|wa|Felû}}) is a village of [Wallonia](/source/Wallonia) and a district of the municipality of [Seneffe](/source/Seneffe), located in the [province of Hainaut](/source/Hainaut_Province), [Belgium](/source/Belgium).

The first mention of the village is from 673, but the settlement probably dates back to the time of the [Gauls](/source/Gauls). Stone quarries have operated in the village since the 14th century. The village church dates largely from 1754 to 1756 but incorporates details from an earlier church building. The [Château de Feluy](/source/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_Feluy) lies in the centre of the village; its oldest parts date from the 15th century and contains the [coats of arms](/source/coat_of_arms) of the Renesse–Rubempré–Egmont families. The [Château de la Rocq](/source/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_la_Rocq) lies in the vicinity of the village proper.<ref name=grguide>{{cite book |editor-last= Menne|editor-first= Gilbert|date= 2014|title= Le grand guide de Wallonie et de Bruxelles|location= Brussels|publisher= Racine|pages= 961–962|isbn=978-94-014-1418-0}}</ref><ref name=arquennes>{{cite web |url= https://www.seneffe.be/theme_loisirs/tourisme/office-du-tourisme/feluy-1|title= Feluy|author=<!--Not stated--> |publisher= Seneffe Municipality|access-date= 19 June 2021}}</ref>
