Château de Montmirey-la-Ville stands in Montmirey-la-Ville (Jura), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Built progressively between 1772 and 1884, Montmirey-la-Ville château centres on a main building enlarged with two wing structures. The property blends Neo-Renaissance and Neo-Gothic styles: its park-facing facade, redesigned from 1873 onward, features a pavilion section topped by a belvedere. An interior chapel, carriage hall, orangery, and several pavilions form a composition intended as a residence of distinction. Interior decoration, particularly the painted ceilings of the library and drawing room, as well as Beauvais tapestries in the dining hall, reflect the care devoted to the design.
