Château de Caussade stands in Trélissac (Dordogne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

At Trélissac, on the edge of Périgueux, the Château de Caussade stands within its 15th century polygonal enclosure, flanked by four square towers that still bear their machicolations and arrow slits. Built after the Hundred Years' War on the site of an older stronghold, it passed through the Vigier, Cugnac and La Marthonie families, lived through the Wars of Religion, and was acquired by the French State in 1930. The gatehouse still preserves its full defensive system: a watchman's post, the drawbridge mechanism and a chute for dropping projectiles.
