Château de Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois, Medieval castle in Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois, France.

Château de Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois is a fortified estate anchored by a circular medieval tower surrounded by structures from multiple periods. The complex occupies a landscaped park setting with protective walls, farm buildings, covered walkways, and a water-filled moat that once served defensive purposes.

The Château de Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois in Essonne dates from the 13th century. Its keep was classified as a monument historique by decree of 7 December 1923, and the facades, outbuildings, covered passage and moats were inscribed by decree of 12 January 1961.

The castle stands in the commune of Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois in the Essonne department. Its keep was classified as a monument historique on 7 December 1923, and the facades, outbuildings, covered passage and moats were inscribed on 12 January 1961, so the site carries two distinct levels of protection.

The donjon was classified as a monument historique on 7 December 1923, while the facades, outbuildings, covered passage and moats were inscribed on 12 January 1961. The complex lies in the commune of Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois in Essonne, reachable by regional trains to the town's station. A stone bridge with two visible arches crosses toward the base of the buildings, and a low stone wall runs along their front.

The keep was classified as a monument historique by decree of 7 December 1923, decades before the facades, outbuildings, covered passage and moats were inscribed on 12 January 1961. The two separate protections explain why the tower is often described apart from the rest of the complex.
