Château de Leugny stands in Azay-sur-Cher (Indre-et-Loire), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The château de Leugny stands in Azay-sur-Cher, between the Loire and the Cher rivers, in a style typical of the late 18th century. Built for Antoine Ribot, a salt tax receiver from Amboise, by the architect André Portier, it features a double main building whose symmetrical façades, lined with seven windows each, are topped by a balustrade. Notable details include the ground floor's French windows, decorated with potato flower motifs. Two outbuildings, older than the château itself, flank the main courtyard.
