Château de Mercey, Medieval castle in Montbellet, France.
The castle features a rectangular main building with two round towers on its western corners and two pavilions on the eastern angles.
Baron Charles-Étienne Le Grand de Mercey purchased the castle in 1808 using a 100,000 franc gift from Napoleon Bonaparte.
The estate demonstrates the evolution of military architecture into noble residences, incorporating elements such as Tuscan pilasters framing the main entrance.
The castle remains a private residence owned by the Legrand de Mercey family and does not offer public access.
The two round towers are remnants of an earlier fortified house, marking the transition between military fortress and noble residence.
