In the courtyard of this 16th-century hotel, a polygonal stair turret whose access door is surmounted by a sculpted cartouche. In the centre of the cartouche, in an oval shield, the arms of the de la Porte family. Above is the year 1577. The main dwellings still retain 16th-century windows from which the mullions have been removed. The courtyard entrance door presents a basket-handle arch with prismatic moulding.
