Château de Léray stands in Saint-Pierre-d'Exideuil (Vienne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Perched on a rocky spur above the Charente river near Civray, the château de Léray stands in the commune of Saint-Pierre-d'Exideuil. Built at the end of the 16th century, the manor house features a corner turret and a dovecote dated 1572, a mark reserved for a lord with high justice rights. It also includes a dog oven used to dry the hunting pack, a feature rarely found in the region.
