Château de Pissy stands in Pissy (Somme), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 17th century, 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Pissy Castle, built from 1681 onwards in brick and dressed stone, exemplifies the seigniorial architecture of the Amiens region at the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries. Its central block, flanked by two wings set at right angles, was enlarged during the 18th century with two lower wings to the north and south. The site's distinctive feature lies in the extraction of building materials from a quarry dug beneath the present courtyard, resulting in a subsidence of the ground still visible today.

What to know

  • The façades and roofs have been listed as historical monuments since 1989.
  • The building is not reported to be regularly open to the public.
  • The ground subsidence visible beneath the courtyard testifies to the historical extraction of building materials.
