Château du Châtelet stands in Harchéchamp (Vosges), in the Grand Est region of France. No visits are on record for this building.
In the western Vosges, the Château du Châtelet stands on a promontory above the Vair river, enclosed within a medieval wall that also shelters a fortified house, an old farm and a tower. The main building, a rectangular manor flanked by two square towers, dates largely from the Renaissance, with a facade of mullioned windows beneath a steep roof pierced by dormers. Inside, visitors can still see a monumental kitchen fireplace, a chapel decorated with old frescoes, and a spiral staircase. The site combines several centuries of building work, from the original medieval keep to eighteenth century alterations.
