Château de Dracy-le-Fort stands in Dracy-le-Fort (Saône-et-Loire), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. No visits are on record for this building.

The château de Dracy-le-Fort stands along the Orbize stream, a short walk from the village church. Its main building flanked by two square towers and its 16th-century gate tower reflect a defensive architecture reshaped over time, notably with the addition of a pedimented gateway in the 18th century. The property remains privately owned and is not open to visitors, though its stately character can still be appreciated from the outside, especially along the long avenue of lime trees leading to the façade.
