The Château du Denacre, in Wimille in the Pas-de-Calais region, stands on the site of the former Ratière estate and dates from the last quarter of the 18th century, with a documented transformation in 1777. The house once belonged to the Boulogne seminary before being remodelled during the First Empire by a merchant who added its fireplaces and Louis XVI style decoration. The facades, roofs, and the first-floor dining room and salon are listed as historic monuments, along with the round pool, the garden folly and the fountain in the park. Today the building operates as holiday accommodation and is not open to the public as a monument.
