Château de Brinches stands in Villemareuil (Seine-et-Marne), in the Île-de-France region of France. No visits are on record for this building.

The château de Brinches stands in Villemareuil, in Seine-et-Marne. Its origins date back to the mid 17th century, when Charles II of Lorraine, Duke of Elbeuf, had it built, though a fire in 1757 destroyed part of it, including the chapel and two wings. Having changed hands several times over the centuries, seized during the Revolution and sold as national property, it still bears the marks of a late 19th century restoration.
