Château de Sauvage stands in Émancé (Yvelines), in the Île-de-France region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
Sauvage castle stands in Émancé, in the southern part of the Yvelines department, on a site linked to Louis XIV, who granted it to one of his illegitimate daughters. The building seen today, raised in millstone and brick during the Second Empire, replaced an earlier group of three wings. A forty-hectare English-style park surrounds the castle, including a pond fed by the Drouette river. The estate long housed a zoological reserve open to visitors, closed since the 2010s.
