Château d'Écoyeux, Historical castle in Écoyeux, France.

The castle features a five-sided polygonal tower topped with a slate roof and a two-level main building with triangular pediment windows.

Louis de Polignac initiated the construction of Château d'Écoyeux in 1614, but only half of the planned main building was completed.

The gardens of the Princes of Polignac at Château d'Écoyeux are listed in the preliminary inventory of notable French gardens.

The castle functions as a lodging establishment through Airbnb, offering accommodations in the gîte Le Royal Cagouille.

The castle's rare pentagonal tower design sets it apart from other structures of its period in the Charente-Maritime region.
