History
Fortified castle transformed into a gentleman's residence from 1683 onwards and surrounded by formal gardens. The whole comprises several blocks of buildings from various periods ranging from the 15th to the 19th century, with a dominance of the 18th and 19th centuries. Three grassed terraces were redrawn by landscape architect Achille Duchêne at the beginning of the 20th century.
