Château de Dampierre stands in Dampierre-en-Yvelines (Yvelines), in the Île-de-France region of France.

Set in the Chevreuse valley, Dampierre castle stands on the site of a medieval manor, remodelled during the Renaissance and then rebuilt in the late 17th century by Jules Hardouin-Mansart for the Duke of Chevreuse, Colbert's son-in-law. Its facades combine ochre render, brick and cut stone in a banded pattern reminiscent of the Loire valley houses, while the park laid out by Le Nôtre unfolds around a large ornamental pond. The estate belonged to the d'Albert de Luynes family for nearly three and a half centuries before passing to new owners in 2018, and has since undergone extensive restoration work. Visitors can currently walk through the listed grounds.
