Origin and history

Goyencourt Castle is a building located in the municipality of the same name, in the Hauts-de-France region. The available sources do not specify its construction period or architectural style, but its existence is attested as an element of local heritage. In the countryside of Hauts-de-France, castles and seigneurial houses often played a central role in social and economic organization.

They served as a residence for noble or bourgeois families, while structuring the agricultural and craft activities of surrounding villages. These monuments also reflected the power dynamics and architectural evolutions of their time.
