Castle to Castle is the English title of the 1957 novel by Louis-Ferdinand Celine, titled in French D'un château l'autre. Written about his experiences in exile with the Vichy French government in Germany towards the end of the war at Sigmaringen.

"Castle to Castle" was mentioned in Jack Keroauc's biography "Subterranean Kerouac" by Ellis Amburn (St. Martin's Press, 1998; p. 301). Kerouac was at dinner with Steve Allen and Jayne Meadows at their apartment and described Celine's work as "a portrait of existence as rotten and mad."
