Historique
Château construit de 1751 à 1754 sur l'emplacement d'une habitation antérieure. Un corps central à trois niveaux, couvert d'un toit brisé, est flanqué de chaque côté de deux ailes basses couvertes d'un toit à grandes croupes. A l'est et à l'ouest, des communs terminés par deux pigeonniers enserrent une cour fermée de grilles. Au centre, l'entrée est surmontée d'un fronton pignon percé d'une baie plein cintre. Cette entrée sud est agrémentée de deux pilastres. Les baies des bâtiments centraux sont en plein cintre ; celles des bâtiments latéraux sont ouvertes sous un arc en anse de panier. Un bandeau limite un attique percé alternativement d'oeils-de-boeuf et de lucarnes à frontons. L'ensemble est construit sur lit de briques, renforcés pour les chaînages et les décors, de pierre.

History
Castle built from 1751 to 1754 on the site of a former dwelling. A central block on three levels, covered by a mansard roof, is flanked on each side by two low wings covered with mansard roofs. To the east and west, outbuildings terminated by two dovecotes enclose a courtyard closed with grilles. At the centre, the entrance is surmounted by a gable pediment pierced with a round arch opening. This southern entrance is embellished with two pilasters. The openings of the central buildings are round arch; those of the lateral buildings open under a basket handle arch. A band limits an attic pierced alternately with oculi and gabled dormers. The whole is built on a bed of bricks, reinforced for the quoins and decorative elements, with stone.
