Château de Soupir, Inscribed historical monument and castle in Soupir, France.
The castle features a stone portal constructed in 1908, standing as the sole remaining element of the original structure in open farmland.
Originally built as a wooden fortress in the 9th century, the castle underwent reconstruction in the 16th century and later served as a military hospital in 1914.
The castle's transformation in the 19th century incorporated Renaissance architectural elements while maintaining two medieval stone towers from the previous fortress.
The site lies in agricultural fields near Soupir village in the Aisne department, requiring visitors to exercise caution around farming activities.
During World War I, the castle changed hands between French and German forces before its destruction in 1917, leading to its complete dismantling by 1926.
