Château de Frœschwiller stands in Frœschwiller (Bas-Rhin), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The château de Frœschwiller, set against the village church, owes its present appearance to renovation works carried out in 1890 by the Munich architect Emanuel von Seidl for the von Durckheim family, lords of the estate since the 14th century. The building combines a mansard roof with dormer gables and a tower topped with a belvedere, a legacy of an earlier villa built around 1850 on a site occupied since medieval times. Around the main building, the estate still includes its outbuildings, a well, a fountain, a landscaped park with follies and statuary, and a kitchen garden with its greenhouses.
