Château de Dampierre is a French classical-style château set in the hollow of a valley against the Chevreuse valley, in the commune of Dampierre-en-Yvelines.Built in the last quarter of the 17th century by the Versailles architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart, it has been the residence of kings Louis XIV and Louis XV. But it was above all the property of the Albert de Luynes family from 1663 to 2018.
The château was listed as a historic monument in 1928.
