Château de Rocheplatte, Medieval castle in Aulnay-la-Rivière, France.

The castle stands at the meeting point of the Oeuf and Rimarde rivers, featuring towers and water-filled moats surrounding the main structure.

Built in the 11th century as a defensive structure, the castle underwent reconstruction in the 18th century following a fire and subsequent sale.

The castle grounds contain a 13th-century Gothic cellar near the outbuildings, presenting architectural elements from different construction periods.

The Grand Pithiverais Tourist Office arranges guided tours of the exterior areas with the castle owner, lasting approximately 90 minutes.

The castle park houses rare plant species introduced to the region by botanist Duhamel du Monceau during the 18th century.
