Château des Ostieux stands in Les Yveteaux (Orne), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, fourth quarter of the 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

The château des Ostieux is a 15th-century manor house in Les Yveteaux, Normandy. Originally designed as a rectangular dwelling with cellars, it centers on a hexagonal tower and is accompanied by stables, barns, and a pond. The building underwent two major transformations: the addition of a corner turret in the classical period, then a complete refacing of its facades in the late 19th century under architect Henri Chaîne, who also built a new south wing. Interior decorations were updated in an eclectic style at that time. The estate includes a landscaped park and farm buildings dating from the 17th and 18th centuries.
