Herbouville Castle stands on the right bank of the Dun river, in the commune of Saint-Pierre-le-Vieux in Seine-Maritime, Normandy. Built in the early 17th century from sandstone and brick, it combines a Louis XIII layout with Renaissance features, including an upturned keel-shaped roof and mullioned windows. Symmetrical pavilions flanking the main courtyard were added between 1766 and 1768, along with stables and outbuildings. The property, surrounded by dry moats, also includes a barn, a bread oven and a walled kitchen garden.
