Château de la Finou stands in Lalinde (Dordogne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 16th century, 17th century, 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

At Lalinde, in the Périgord pourpre area, the château de la Finou displays its quadrangular walls and 15th-century towers near the village of Sainte-Colombe. Its courtyard combines a round medieval tower with a Régence-period pavilion topped by curved roofs, flanked by substantial outbuildings. Now a private property used as a holiday centre, the estate still reflects its origins as a noble stronghold reshaped through the 18th century.
