Château des Garennes stands in Verneuil-en-Bourbonnais (Allier), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. No visits are on record for this building.

The château des Garennes stands in Verneuil-en-Bourbonnais, in the Allier department. Originally built as a medieval stronghold, it retains two round towers flanking the west front of its main building, once protected by moats that have since been filled in. A courtyard lined by two outbuilding wings completes the ensemble, reflecting changes made in the 19th century, when one tower became a chapel and the other a dovecote.
