Château d'Oisy stands in Oisy-le-Verger (Pas-de-Calais), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
The château d'Oisy once stood in the centre of the village of Oisy-le-Verger, in the Pas-de-Calais, on what is now open pastureland. This medieval stronghold, built around a massive keep and enclosing the village church within its walls, endured nearly six centuries of sieges and rebuildings before being replaced by a later manor house, itself demolished during the Revolution. No structure remains standing today, but the site carries the memory of an eventful feudal past.
