Château de la Pelissonnière stands in Le Boupère (Vendée), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Set apart from the village of Le Boupère, the Pelissonnière retains the outline of a Renaissance manor reshaped over the centuries. Visitors come above all for a freestanding tower in the park and for a 16th century fireplace, brought here from the priory of Mouzeuil-Saint-Martin, both protected as historic monuments. The house, still owned by the Lestrange family, once hosted the Duchess of Berry in 1828.
