Château de Belle-Assise stands in Jossigny (Seine-et-Marne), in the Île-de-France region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The château de Belle-Assise no longer stands today: it was once a large residence built at Jossigny, in Seine-et-Marne, owned by Nicolas Fouquet, superintendent of finances under Louis XIV and also the owner of Vaux-le-Vicomte. Its disappearance makes it a site of purely historical interest, with nothing left to see on the ground. It should not be confused with the château de Jossigny, a separate building still standing in the same town.
