History
Castle from the end of the 16th century, which appears to have had a drawbridge. Currently, a stone bridge spans the ditches. The entrance facade presents double-mullion openings which are blocked. In the interior courtyard, the main dwelling body is in return of elongated right-angle. Staircase of wrought iron from the 17th century. Painted ceilings of the same period.
