Château de la Rochepot stands in La Rochepot (Côte-d'Or), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 19th century, first half of the 20th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In La Rochepot, Côte-d'Or, this castle stands out for its glazed Burgundian roof tiles, glowing against the surrounding forest. What visitors see today is not a medieval survivor but a careful reconstruction carried out at the turn of the 20th century, on the site of a fortress destroyed during the Revolution. The interior keeps original decors and furnishings that give the whole a rare coherence, thought through down to the smallest detail by the man who rebuilt it.
