History
Manor built late 16th early 17th century, particularly remarkable for the masonry of its façades in carefully laid rubble stone. The buildings are arranged around a rectangular paved courtyard: manor at the back, well to the west, chapel to the north-west, outbuildings to the north and east. The manor of rectangular plan is composed of three aligned building bodies, with gables of decreasing height. The western body is served by a circular staircase in the thickness of the façade. In the central body, a circular staircase tower is partly projecting in the middle of the north-east face.
