Château de Mansencôme stands in Mansencôme (Gers), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 13th century, 14th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In the Gers department, near Valence-sur-Baïse, the château de Mansencôme stands as a rectangular main building flanked by two square towers, an example of the fortified Gascon style built along the Anglo-French frontier at the end of the 13th century. Its facade still shows original cross-shaped arrow slits alongside large windows added later, including a twin window with trefoil arches. Held by the Lasseran family for several centuries before passing through various owners after the Revolution, the building bears the marks of these successive changes.
