Château de Roquefort stands in Roquefort (Lot-et-Garonne), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century (?), first half of the 14th century (?)). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

On a hillside in Lot-et-Garonne, the château de Roquefort displays the remains of a medieval stronghold whose construction dates back to the 13th century. Visitors can see a triple enclosure, a square tower reduced to half its original height, and a tower-hall, all bearing witness to a building that stood in ruins for a long time before being partly restored in the classical period. The site, shaped more by its defensive architecture than by a dramatic history, still shows a breach in its curtain walls, roughly patched with brick, likely dating from an old siege or dismantling.
