Motte castrale du Château stands in Rémalard en Perche (Orne), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 11th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Rémalard en Perche, in the Orne department, stands an 11th-century motte, the only remaining trace of a former fortified site. This earthen mound, now a listed historic monument, gives an idea of the timber structure that once topped it. It is a modest site, better suited to those curious about medieval archaeology than to visitors expecting a stone castle.
