Château de Diant stands in Diant (Seine-et-Marne), in the Île-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, 15th century, first half of the 19th century).

The Château de Diant stands on the edge of Seine-et-Marne, its origins dating to the 13th century among the companions of Philippe Auguste, with later work in the 15th and 19th centuries. The estate still shows its towers, enclosing walls and moat, marking the shift from a defensive stronghold to a residence. As a private property, the castle and its gardens are closed to visitors, though the entrance gate and approach lane can be seen from the road.
