Château de Lessard-en-Bresse stands in Lessard-en-Bresse (Saône-et-Loire), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
Set in the open Bresse countryside, this château is recognisable by its two round brick towers with high conical roofs, flanking a rectangular main building itself extended by square towers, one of them topped with machicolations. The whole stands on a near-circular platform surrounded by moats overgrown with vegetation, once reached by a fixed bridge and a footbridge. In private hands since 1985, it is not open to visitors, though its architecture can be seen from the outside.
