Château de la Roche-Montbourcher stands in Cuguen (Ille-et-Vilaine), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 14th century (?), 15th century (?)). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Near Cuguen, in Ille-et-Vilaine, a wooded rise conceals the remains of a fortified castle built in the 14th and 15th centuries. The site includes an earthen mound carrying two ruined stone towers and an outer bailey encircled by moats, a layout typical of late medieval strongholds. Woodland has grown over the whole area, giving visitors the feel of stumbling upon earthworks and fragments of masonry hidden among the trees.
