Château de Beaufremont, Medieval fortress ruins in Beaufremont, France.

Château de Beaufremont is a ruined hilltop stronghold of the Bauffremont family, first mentioned in 1157. Its surviving enclosure consists of low, thick walls of rough grey-brown stone, with a wide rounded stretch on one side broken by a deep gap; below, rubble falls away in a steep bank. A thin pole with a small orange-red flag stands on the wall, and a vaulted kitchen (coquina) is attested among the former buildings.

Built in the 12th century, the castle remained in the hands of the Bauffremont family for centuries until its demolition in 1634 during the Thirty Years' War. This destruction ended its role as a major defensive structure in the region.

The castle belonged to the Bauffremont family, who gave the village its name. The dovecote built outside the walls in 1607, its date carved on a band, was later turned into the Chapel of Saint Joseph. A vaulted kitchen (coquina) is attested among the buildings.

The castle grounds remain private property owned by the Bauffremont family and require special permission to visit. It is advisable to contact the owners in advance to arrange access and learn about current conditions.

The dovecote stands outside the castle's enceinte, and its 1607 date is carved on a band across the masonry. It later became the Chapel of Saint Joseph. The castle was dismantled in 1634 during the Thirty Years' War, and the site was classified as a monument historique on 30 September 1994.
