The château de Saint-Cloud (French pronunciation: [ʃato d(ə) sɛ̃ klu]) was a château in France, built on a site overlooking the Seine at Saint-Cloud in Hauts-de-Seine, about 5 kilometres (3 miles) west of Paris. The gardens survive, and the estate is now known as the parc de Saint-Cloud.
The château was expanded by Philippe I, Duke of Orléans, in the 17th century and by Marie-Antoinette, Queen of France and Navarre, in the 1780s. In the 19th century it was used by Napoleon Bonaparte, the royal family during the Bourbon Restoration, Louis-Philippe d'Orléans, and Napoleon III. The palace burned down in 1870 during the Franco-Prussian War, and its ruins were demolished in 1891.
