Château de Saint-Paul-d'Oueil stands in Saint-Paul-d'Oueil (Haute-Garonne), in the Occitanie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
In Saint-Paul-d'Oueil, in the Haute-Garonne department, this sixteenth-century Renaissance manor is marked by its hexagonal stair tower, the only fortified element still standing from a once larger complex. A privately owned building alongside the departmental road 51, it represents a type of seigneurial residence specific to the Pyrenean high mountains. What visitors can see is mainly the rectangular main house and the tower pierced with mullioned windows, viewed from outside.
