Château de Rhodes stands in Mouhet (Indre), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. No visits are on record for this building.

The château de Rhodes stands in the commune of Mouhet, in the Indre department, and gave its name to a junior branch of the ancient Pot family, who acquired the estate in the fourteenth century through the marriage of Raoul Pot to Jeanne de Séris. It was from this holding that Guillaume Pot de Rhodes, a close associate of Henri III and the first grand master of ceremonies of France, took his name and title. He and his father Jean were buried in the nearby church of Saint-Pierre in Mouhet, beneath a marble plaque bearing their epitaphs.
