Château de Pechbonnieu stands in Pechbonnieu (Haute-Garonne), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second half of the 18th century). No visits are on record for this building.

Built in the 17th century, Pechbonnieu Castle underwent major renovation in the second half of the 18th century. Its chapel, adorned with stuccowork dated 1778 and signed by master stuccoist Lacombe, stands as the most notable witness to this modernization period. Integrated into a private residence during the 19th century, the chapel and its adjoining rooms survive today as remnants of what was once a larger complex.
