Château de Chamilly stands in Chamilly (Saône-et-Loire), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In the Saône-et-Loire department, north of the Côte Chalonnaise, the château de Chamilly combines a 17th century classical layout with traces of an older fortified house. A horseshoe shaped tower adjoining the gatehouse recalls this medieval origin, while the main building, with façades marked by rusticated stonework, was probably built by Nicolas Bouton, count of Chamilly, who died in 1662. The Desfontaine family, owners since the early 19th century, now runs a wine estate there and opens the château's former kitchens to visitors.
