Château de Saint-Marceau stands in Saint-Marceau (Ardennes), in the Grand Est 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 Saint-Marceau stands on a hillside in the Ardennes, overlooking the point where the Vence meets the Meuse, a few kilometres from Charleville-Mézières. Originally built as a defensive stronghold, it was reworked in the 17th century, when large windows were cut into its walls to make it more comfortable to live in. The building thus carries the marks of two successive purposes, first as a fortified structure, then as a residence. It is listed today as a historic monument.
