Château de la Roche-Giffard stands in Saint-Sulpice-des-Landes (Ille-et-Vilaine), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second quarter of the 19th century, fourth quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Built in the 19th century on the remains of a former fortress, the Château de la Roche-Giffard exemplifies the neoclassical architecture of that era. Constructed in two phases, first with a neo-17th-century building then expanded between 1876 and 1880, it displays an H-shaped plan with a central block flanked by two wings. Three interiors deserve particular note: a fully panelled salon in the south wing, an imposing two-storey reception hall decorated with murals, and on the upper floor a large bedroom with walls and ceiling upholstered in silk.
