Château de Poireauville stands in Vaudricourt (Somme), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
In Vaudricourt, in the Somme department, the château de Poireauville stands on the site of an older manor house acquired in 1463 by the Rambures family. Successive alterations, particularly in the 19th century, gave the building its present appearance, with an east front flanked by two matching projecting wings around a central section. The property remains tied above all to this noble family, long associated with the local history of Saint-Blimont and later Vaudricourt.
