Château de la Bourlie stands in Urval (Dordogne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 18th century, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

South of the village of Urval, in the Périgord noir region, the château de la Bourlie preserves traces of a former noble stronghold first recorded in 1459. Three successive families shaped the estate, and in the 18th century the fortified building was converted into an aristocratic residence opening onto terraces and a formal garden. In the following century a landscaped park was added, reflecting the botanical interests of Marie-Amanda Blanche de Commarque. Today the buildings, gardens and park can be seen together, listed in their entirety as a historic monument.
