Château d'Arrancy stands in Arrancy (Aisne), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Arrancy castle stands in the Aisne department, on foundations dating back to the 17th century, though its present appearance owes much to a rebuilding carried out after the devastation of the First World War. The main draw is the grounds, where a walled kitchen garden near the entrance keeps its old layout, while another section, laid out by Scottish landscape designer Thomas Blaikie, plays on views of the surrounding countryside. The estate remains privately owned, currently held by the La Tour du Pin family.
