Château de Beauvoir stands in Beauvoir-Wavans (Pas-de-Calais), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Built in 1783 by architect Antoine du Bois, the château de Beauvoir is a Pas-de-Calais residence that belonged to the Beaulaincourt family. It embodies the model of an agricultural estate from the final years of the Old Regime: beyond the main house, it retains a complete range of functional buildings, from the cider press to the bakery, which ensured the self-sufficiency of a prosperous rural holding. The park, kitchen garden and outbuildings form a coherent ensemble that illuminates rural living during the decades before 1789.
