Château de Gamaches stands in Gamaches (Somme), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 12th century, 13th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Gamaches, in the Somme department, two round towers remain from a fortified castle built in the 12th and 13th centuries. One stands in ruins, keeping its medieval character, while the other was heavily altered in the 19th century and adjoined by plain later buildings. A 17th-century gateway completes this mixed group, best appreciated from the outside.

Written from Ancien château de Gamaches
