Château de Dracy-lès-Couches stands in Dracy-lès-Couches (Saône-et-Loire), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: Middle Ages, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Set on a hillside in Saône-et-Loire, the Château de Dracy-lès-Couches combines remnants of a medieval stronghold with 19th-century alterations that shaped its present appearance. A square keep and a round 15th-century tower still stand, overlooking a courtyard opened onto the park after two wings were partly demolished around 1860. A private property, it reflects through its turrets and varied rooflines the layered history of the many families who held it since 1298.
