    The Château de Châteaubriant is a medieval castle, heavily remodeled during the Renaissance, located at Châteaubriant in the French department of Loire-Atlantique in the Pays de la Loire region

    The castle was established in the 11th century on the Marches de Bretagne and, like those of Vitré, Fougères, Ancenis and Clisson, it was responsible for defending Brittany against the County of Anjou. It is also the Breton counterpart of the Château de Pouancé, located in Anjou.
