Rossenges is a very small municipality in the canton of Vaud, Switzerland, in the district of Broye-Vully. It sits on the left bank of the Bressonne river, southwest of Moudon. The area covers 1.07 square kilometers, and most of the land is used for farming. The village consists of Rossenges and the small hamlet L’Abbaye.

As of 2020, about 84 people live in Rossenges. The community is mainly French-speaking, with a few foreign residents. The population has grown in recent years, largely due to people moving to the area.

Rossenges was first mentioned in 1309 and has also been called L’Abbaye de Rossenges.

Economy and life here are dominated by farming, with several farming jobs and low unemployment. Many residents commute to work outside the municipality.

Religious and education details show that most people belong to the Swiss Reformed Church, with a minority of Catholics and others. In recent years there were about a dozen students in the local school district, attending primary and lower secondary levels.

In the future, Rossenges may merge with nearby Moudon to form a larger municipality.
