Château de Vierzy stands in Vierzy (Aisne), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Vierzy, in the Aisne department, the remains of a 15th century château can still be made out through a fortified gate, a rectangular main building topped with a polygonal turret, and traces of a pointed-arch gallery. The estate once belonged to the d'Estrées family before passing in the 18th century to the Duke of Noailles and later to the Princess of Chimay. Visitors come here for the medieval defensive architecture rather than for a lived-in château, in a quiet, little-known setting.
