Château de Louye stands in Louye (Eure), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 15th century, 16th century, second half of the 18th century, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The château de Louye stands in the Eure department on the site of a fortress recorded as early as 1194 within the defensive line of the Duchy of Normandy, of which only the layout and a few traces of masonry remain. The present building dates mainly from the late 15th century, with its L-shaped plan and brick decoration, and received additions around 1810 from architect Berthault, combining Egyptian-inspired motifs with a Gothic style across two different wings. The estate also includes a landscaped park with several garden structures, among them a neo-Gothic tower, along with an extensive group of outbuildings and a former kitchen garden.
