Château de Jouffroy-d'Abbans stands in Abbans-Dessus (Doubs), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Perched on a rocky spur above the Doubs valley, the château de Jouffroy d'Abbans combines a medieval keep with two towers and a main residence reworked in the 18th century. It was here that Claude-François-Dorothée de Jouffroy d'Abbans designed one of his earliest steamboats, in the home his family has occupied for five centuries. Visitors can see a gallery of portraits of the marquis d'Abbans and panelling preserved on the ground floor.
