Château de Ragnies stands in Lavaur (Tarn), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century, 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The Château de Ragnies stands in Lavaur, in the Tarn department, built in the 17th century as a summer residence for the bishops of the town. Its classical architecture, restrained on the outside, conceals a more refined interior: wood panelled ceilings, period fireplaces and an 18th century chapel decorated with rocaille plasterwork. The building shows a curious asymmetry, as a wing meant to mirror the other was either never finished or was torn down, leaving visible traces on the facade.
