Château de Nogaret stands in Saint-André-de-Valborgne (Gard), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Château de Nogaret, a 16th-century lordly residence in the Gard, is organized around a closed courtyard. Its four corner towers, pierced with gun ports, bear witness to the fortifications built during the Wars of Religion. The western wing, constructed at the transition between the 15th and 16th centuries, forms the original core; its interior decorations, French ceilings and ornamental plasterwork, reflect its owners' place among Protestant nobility.
