The Neuchâtel Open was a professional golf tournament that was played annually between 1982 and 2007 at Neuchâtel Golf Club in Saint-Blaise, Neuchâtel, Switzerland. It was a 54-hole stroke play tournament.

From 1990 to 2000 it was an event on the second-tier Challenge Tour, although it was an unofficial money event in some seasons. After being dropped from the Challenge Tour schedule, it became a fixture on the third-tier Alps Tour between 2001 and 2007.
