Château de Courcelles stands in Saint-Brice-Courcelles (Marne), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
In Saint-Brice-Courcelles, on the edge of Reims, this neoclassical residence built in 1831 resembles a small palace more than a country house. Parisian architect Antoine-Martin Garnaud designed façades with columns and pilasters, arranged in regular bays around a central section topped by a pediment. Inside, a salon echoes the façade's decoration with Ionic pilasters, and features Louis XV woodwork salvaged from a demolished house in Charleville during the 1920s restoration.
