Une aile latérale et une terrasse ont été réalisées au 17e siècle. Incendié en 1944, le château a perdu l'essentiel de ses aménagements intérieurs anciens. Des dépendances et communs complètent l'ensemble. Un parc a été aménagé au 19e siècle.

The castle forms a spur and dominates the great plain on a hillside. Mentioned from the end of the 13th century, the castle buildings date from the 14th and 15th centuries. A lateral wing and a terrace were built in the 17th century. Burned in 1944, the castle lost most of its old interior fittings. Outbuildings and domestic buildings complete the ensemble. A park was laid out in the 19th century.
