Château de Berzy-le-Sec, Medieval castle in Berzy-le-Sec, France.

The castle features a square enclosure measuring 40 by 50 meters with corner turrets and a central courtyard surrounded by former buildings.

Built in the 12th century and modified during the 14th, 15th, and 16th centuries, the castle belonged to the Berzy family until Pierre de Louvain acquired it in 1445.

The castle includes a 16th-century chapel with cross-ribbed vaults and architectural elements combining medieval defensive features with Renaissance style modifications.

The castle entrance contains a pointed arch gate with visible portcullis mechanisms and protective features including machicolations and a drawbridge system.

Two grinding stones from the Neolithic period were discovered at the castle site and received historical monument classification in 1899.
