Château de Kergounadeach stands in Cléder (Finistère), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument. The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The ruins of the château de Kergounadeach stand in Cléder, in the Finistère, remnants of a residence built around 1630 by Sébastien II de Rosmadec on the layout of an older stronghold. The four round towers and the machicolated gallery, medieval in appearance, contrast with the Renaissance ornamentation still visible on the chimneys. The site carries the memory of one of the oldest families of the Léon region, whose legend tells of an ancestor granted this land for fighting a dragon alongside Saint Paul Aurélien.
