Château de Quingey stands in Quingey (Doubs), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century, 15th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In the center of the village of Quingey, by the Loue river, stands a round tower that was once one of the residences of the counts of Burgundy. Local tradition holds that this was the birthplace of Guy of Burgundy, who became Pope Callixtus II in the early 12th century. The structure seen today, reworked in the 13th and 15th centuries and later restored in the 18th and 19th centuries, lost part of its remains when a factory was built on the site in the 19th century. Now in private hands, it is chiefly recognizable by its round shape and conical roof.
