Château de Sainte-Hermine stands in Saint-Jean-d'Hermine (Vendée), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 13th century, first quarter of the 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The château de Sainte-Hermine stands in Saint-Jean-d'Hermine, in the Vendée region, on a site occupied since the early Middle Ages. Of the original medieval stronghold, a spur tower dating from the late 13th century survives, now part of a complex largely rebuilt in the early 17th century and again altered in the 19th century. The interior retains fittings and painted decoration from that early 17th century reconstruction, carried out for one of the region's prominent Huguenot lords.
