Château de la Montagne stands in Saint-Honoré-les-Bains (Nièvre), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 18th century, second quarter of the 19th century). Adult admission costs 10 EUR. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The château de la Montagne overlooks Saint-Honoré-les-Bains from a spur of the Morvan hills, rebuilt in the second half of the 18th century by architect Jean-Baptiste Caristie after a storm had damaged the earlier building. The interior reception rooms were redesigned in the following century for the Marquis Théodore d'Espeuilles, who commissioned architect Félix Duban for a Second Empire style ensemble. The estate is notable for its former industrial pottery works, founded in 1847 and operating until 1920, whose kilns and installations can be visited alongside the château.
