Château de Bléneau stands in Bléneau (Yonne), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: Middle Ages, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Bléneau castle, in the Yonne department, recalls the Courtenay family who owned it during the Middle Ages, before it passed in the 19th century to the deputy Alexandre Dethou. Its main interior feature is the painted ceiling of the north wing, dating from the 17th century, alongside a postern gate that hints at the building's defensive past. The facades, roofs and these interior elements are listed as historic monuments.
