Château de Mainsat stands in Mainsat (Creuse), 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, fourth quarter of the 19th century, first half of the 20th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In the Creuse department, the château de Mainsat displays a layered architecture shaped by centuries of rebuilding, from the destructions of the Hundred Years' War to twentieth-century alterations. Visitors can see an entrance porch flanked by turrets and a tower dating from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, along with a park featuring statues, an orangery and a garden inspired by medieval design, laid out by landscape architect Marguerite Charageat. The whole reflects a long line of owners and successive embellishment works carried out into the first half of the twentieth century.
