Coppet Castle (French: Château de Coppet) is a château in the municipality of Coppet of the Canton of Vaud in Switzerland. It is a Swiss heritage site of national significance.
It gave its name to the celebrated group of several dozen early 19th-century intellectuals from the whole of Europe, the so-called Coppet group, who met there (c. 1805–1816) under the aegis of Madame de Staël and made signal contributions to literature, philosophy and politics.
