Château de Levainville stands in Levainville (Eure-et-Loir), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
The Château de Levainville, in the Eure-et-Loir department, survives only as scattered remains, most of the medieval building having been destroyed during the French Revolution. Old accounts describe a moated stronghold with four towers and a terraced park planted with elms and lime trees, a memory still echoed in local place names. Its interest today lies as much in the seigneurial history tied to the Cochefilet and then Rohan families as in whatever traces can still be seen on the ground.
