This list focuses primarily on architectural entities that may be properly termed ''castle'' or ''fortress'' (french: château-fort), and excludes entities not built around a substantial older castle that is still evident. # Occasionally, where there is not a specific article on a castle, links are given to another article that includes details, typically an article on a town. # ''Italics'' indicate links to articles in the French Wikipedia. # If no article appears in either English or French Wikipedias, a link is given to an external website. # The number in parentheses after the name of each department indicates the department number used for administrative purposes. # The number of castles in France is estimated to about 45,000, a bit more than 1 for France's 36,000 communities.
