Şavşat Castle or Satle Castle (Georgian: სათლესციხე) is a castle in Şavşat district in Artvin Province in Turkey.
The castle was built during the Georgian Bagrationi kingdom in the 9th century. It was used by the Seljuk Turkish regional governors, called Atabegs, in the 12th century, and after that by the Ottomans.
Much of the castle wall is still standing, as well as the castle dungeons, and the remains of a church on the northern side. The castle's main feature is its "strange trapezoidal towers".
