Rangiotu is a farming community in the Manawatu District and Manawatū-Whanganui region in New Zealand's central North Island. It is located on the Oroua River, just north of where the river meets Manawatū River, and 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) south-east if Himatangi. The settlement was known for many years as Oroua Bridge, but was renamed Rangiotu in honour of the local Rangitāne chief, Hoani Meihana Te Rangiotu. Te Rangimarie Marae was built in 1858 to commemorate peace between Ngāti Raukawa and Rangitāne. The marae currently runs programmes for schools, teaching the Māori history of Manawatū.
