The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Le château contient un escalier à paliers droits, monté sur des colonnes cannelées tronconiques et sur des culots restés dans la note gothique, ainsi que les personnages qui y sont représentés. Le plafond des paliers est enrichi d'enroulements de cuir sculptés dans la pierre. Cet escalier doit dater du règne de Henri IV, mais les balustres de la rampe ne sont pas antérieurs à celui de Louis XIII.

The castle contains a staircase with straight landings, mounted on fluted truncated columns and on corbels that remain in the Gothic style, as well as the figures that are represented there. The ceiling of the landings is enriched with leather scrolls sculptured in stone. This staircase must date from the reign of Henri IV, but the balusters of the handrail are not earlier than that of Louis XIII.
