Château de Rivaulde stands in Salbris (Loir-et-Cher), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 19th century, first quarter of the 20th century). No visits are on record for this building.

In Salbris, in the Sologne region, the château de Rivaulde is a large residence built between 1900 and 1905 for Henri Schneider, an industrialist from Le Creusot, on the site of an older estate. Architect Paul-Ernest Sanson designed an L-shaped layout centred on an entrance hall with a monumental staircase, leading to drawing rooms, a library and a dining room. Stables and a small hydroelectric plant on the Sauldre river complete the estate, reflecting the taste of wealthy industrial families for hunting residences in Sologne.
