Château de Romprey, French castle located in Bure-les-Templiers

Château de Romprey is a castle built in the early 1500s in Bure-les-Templiers, featuring four main stone wings arranged in a U-shape around a central courtyard. The structure has been modified over centuries, with slate roofs added to replace traditional tiles and various additions made during the 1700s and 1800s.

The Templars received the fiefs of Romprey and Conclois, dependent on the parish of Bure, in 1203 from Eudes de Grancey and in 1299, with a castle, from the widow of a lord of Grancey. The present castle was built in the early 16th century by Edme Régnier, lord of Romprey and lieutenant general of the bailliage de la Montagne. The castle chapel, built in 1500, was restored in 1933, when wall paintings were discovered; it was listed as a monument historique on 4 October 1996.

The hamlet's name comes from the Templars, who were granted the fiefs of Romprey and Conclois in 1203 and 1299 by the Grancey family. The castle chapel, built in 1500 across the road, was restored in 1933, when wall paintings were uncovered; it was listed for that interior decoration by decree of 4 October 1996.

The castle is private property and cannot be visited. It stands at the eastern end of Rue de la Soif in the hamlet of Romprey, on the RD 102J south of Bure-les-Templiers. The chapel, built in 1500 and restored in 1933, stands across the road from the castle.

Hidden murals inside the chapel were discovered during restoration in the 1930s, revealing artistic treasures that had been concealed for centuries. These paintings remain protected today and give the small chapel unexpected cultural importance within the estate.
