# Château de Montbéliard

Montbéliard, Doubs, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté

Château de Montbéliard stands in Montbéliard (Doubs), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 16th century, first quarter of the 17th century, 18th century, 19th century). Adult admission costs 12 EUR. Its opening hours and prices were verified at the source on August 4, 2026.

Standing on a rocky spur above Montbéliard, this castle served as the residence of the counts and later dukes of Württemberg for four centuries, before becoming a garrison, a prison and today a museum. Visitors can see the Henriette and Frédéric towers, remnants of the Châtel-Derrière, along with the collections of the Château des ducs de Wurtemberg museum and the local museum of archaeology and natural history housed within its walls. The building, shaped by alterations from the 15th, 16th and 18th centuries, still bears the marks of both its defensive origins and its residential past.
