Bonţida (Hungarian: Bonchida, transl. "Bonc's bridge"; German: Bonisbruck) is a commune in Cluj County, Romania. It is known as the home of a Baroque castle owned by the Bánffy family (of which the last member was Miklós Bánffy); partly destroyed during World War II and neglected by the communist regime in Romania, it is currently being restored.

The Bánffy family had another castle in Răscruci (Válaszút), which is part of Bonţida and also the birthplace of poet Albert Wass.
