Château d'Orquevaux, Historical residence and artist retreat in Orquevaux, France.

The Napoleon III style château stands on extensive grounds with a park and outbuildings in the Haute-Marne department of northeastern France.

The property changed ownership from the Caroillon de Vandeul family to Baron Le Vavasseur, then to Rothea, de Saint-Exupery, and Scheftsik before the Attias family acquired it.

The château operates as an international artist residency program, welcoming creative individuals from more than 120 countries to develop their artistic projects.

Artists can apply for residency programs through the official website and participate in the Golden Ticket Fellowship initiative during their stay.

The château maintains a connection to French philosopher Denis Diderot through his daughter Marie-Angelique's marriage to Abel Nicolas Francois Caroillon du Vandeul.
