Château de Poussery stands in Montaron (Nièvre), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
In Montaron, in the Nièvre department, the château de Poussery is a former fortified manor house built in the 15th century and altered in the 17th. The main building, set at a right angle to 19th century outbuildings, is arranged around a courtyard forming a truncated U shape. Remnants of the moat that once surrounded the whole complex can still be seen, evidence of a defensive layout recorded in old land surveys.
