# Château de Montjoie-le-château

Montjoie-le-Château, Doubs, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté

Château de Montjoie-le-château stands in Montjoie-le-Château (Doubs), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 12th century, 13th century). No visits are on record for this building.

Perched on a rocky spur above the Doubs valley, the ruins of Montjoie-le-Château castle recall a stronghold built at the end of the 12th century to watch over a narrow river passage. The pentagonal keep, still partly standing, overlooks a site with remaining wall sections, collapsed cellars and a Romanesque-Gothic chapel dedicated to Saint George. Fireplaces, a hand-washing basin and latrines can still be seen inside the keep's floors, tangible reminders of seigneurial life.

**No visits on record.** No opening hours or ticketing found.
