Château de Saint-Pierre-du-Jonquet stands in Saint-Pierre-du-Jonquet (Calvados), in the Normandie region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: milieu 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Built in the mid-18th century for a shipowner from Honfleur, the château of Saint-Pierre-du-Jonquet has kept most of its original interior decor: fireplaces, wood panelling, flooring and ceilings date largely from that period. The one 19th-century addition is a billiard room fitted out in 1818, still lined with a Dufour manufactory wallpaper depicting Greek festivals and Olympic games. Together with its courtyard, enclosed garden and moats, the estate reads as a coherent example of 18th-century Norman architecture.
