Château de Morey stands in Morey (Meurthe-et-Moselle), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The château de Morey stands on a hilltop of the Grand Couronné ridge, overlooking the Natagne valley in a small hamlet of the commune of Morey. Its origins trace back to a Templar priory, before the Joly de Morey family built the wings and towers still visible today between the 14th and 17th centuries. Gutted by fire in 1985 and later restored, the estate retains from its turbulent past a listed gate, the only element under historic monument protection. The building is now privately owned and run as a venue for receptions, not open to the public as a heritage site.
