Château du Mirail stands in Brouqueyran (Gironde), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In the countryside near Bazas, the Château du Mirail bears witness to a long history that began in the 13th century, combining traces of a medieval stronghold with later alterations. The main draw here is the chapel, one of the finest baroque ensembles in the region, featuring a carved wooden screen and painted decoration. The tower on the south-west corner also houses a fireplace carved with a relief depicting the Denial of Saint Peter. A private property still owned by the same family since the 19th century, the château is best appreciated through its protected features.
