Motte castrale d'Épineuil-le-Fleuriel stands in Épineuil-le-Fleuriel (Cher), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: Middle Ages). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

What the French Ministry of Culture records

La motte est entourée de son fossé. L'ensemble comprend également une première basse-cour, siège du château postérieur, et une seconde basse-cour abritant le bourg lui-même. Le bourg actuel résulte d'un déplacement de l'habitat ancien (site gallo-romain sur la rive droite du ruisseau et ermitage Saint-Marien) par attraction du château. Cette motte est un exemple représentatif de motte castrale pour le Cher.
