Château de Dampierre-en-Burly stands in Dampierre-en-Burly (Loiret), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Dampierre-en-Burly, in the Loiret, what remains of the 17th century château is limited to an entrance pavilion flanked by four smaller annex pavilions, the rest of the building having been destroyed during the Revolution and rebuilt in the 19th century. The main thing to see is this so called clock pavilion, identifiable by the chimney stack holding a clock face, along with its brick vaulted passageway leading into the grounds. The estate passed through the Cugnac family, then the Feydeau de Marville family and later the de Ganay family, after the agronomist Amédée de Béhague settled there in the 19th century.
