Château de la Basse-Touligny stands in Touligny (Ardennes), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). The building is not open to visitors.

In Touligny, in the Ardennes region, this fortified manor house dating from the 17th century has kept its defensive character despite major alterations carried out at the end of the 19th century. The entrance wing, its bridge and the former moat still bear witness to this fortified origin. The estate, held by the same family for several generations, now combines a working farm with guest accommodation.

What to know

The château is not open for traditional sightseeing, the site today being a working farm with private accommodation.
Only the entrance wing, the bridge and the former moat area are protected as a listed historic monument.
Most of the current buildings result from rebuilding carried out between 1881 and 1887, well after the original 1652 construction.
No visiting hours or admission fees are published, as the place operates mainly as a farm and holiday rental.
