Château d'Égreville stands in Égreville (Seine-et-Marne), in the Île-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In Égreville, Seine-et-Marne, this 16th-century château stands on the site of a medieval fortress, right next to the village church. Its history includes a fire during the French Revolution that left only the north wing and one tower standing, followed by two restoration periods at the end of the 19th century, led first by painter Berne-Bellecour and then by composer Jules Massenet, who made it his secondary residence from 1899 onward. Visitors can see moats, terraces and the remains of the original castle, shaped by successive alterations in the 17th and 18th centuries.
