Château de Courcy stands in Courcy (Calvados), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 11th century, 12th century, 13th century, 15th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The ruins of the château de Courcy stand on a fortified site dating from the late 11th century, later rebuilt in the 13th and 14th centuries, beside a tributary of the Dives river near the church of Saint-Gervais-Saint-Protais. Nine round towers and two square towers survive from the central enclosure, one of which may have served as a keep, along with the remains of a chapel dedicated to Saint Catherine. Dismantled on the order of Louis XIII in the 17th century, the site was later turned into a farm, a use still visible around the ruins today.
