Château de Boissy-le-Sec stands in Boissy-le-Sec (Essonne), in the Île-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 14th century, 17th century, 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Boissy-le-Sec, in the Essonne department, this château preserves traces of a stronghold raised in the 14th century to reinforce the outer defences of Paris. Two large round towers now flank a main residential wing reworked over the centuries, while a vaulted lower hall and cellars recall the medieval origins of the site. Restoration work carried out in 2006 uncovered Gothic mullioned windows long hidden under plaster, revealing a transformation into a pleasure residence that began as early as the late 15th century.
