Château de Monthelie stands in Monthelie (Côte-d'Or), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, third quarter of the 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In Monthelie, in the Côte-d'Or, this château combines a 16th-century wing with a rebuilding dated 1746, topped with the glazed roof tiles typical of Burgundy. The estate has remained for several generations in the hands of the de Suremain family, who also run a vineyard of around ten hectares converted to biodynamic farming. Notable features include the square tower with its spiral staircase, the half-moon entrance gate, and a square-rimmed well in the courtyard.
