Château de Lécluse stands in Neuilly-le-Réal (Allier), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first half of the 17th century, third quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The château de Lécluse stands in Neuilly-le-Réal, in the Allier department, on the site of a medieval fortified residence once surrounded by moats. Its present appearance dates largely from the early 17th century, built in brick and stone in the Bourbonnais style. Around the main building visitors can see a wider ensemble added during works carried out in the 1860s: a Neo-Renaissance chapel, outbuildings, a dovecote, an orangery, and a garden laid out to the north. The moat and pond bordering the eastern courtyard remain part of this coherent architectural setting.
