History
Manor presenting a main dwelling served by a staircase situated in a cylindrical tower, towards the middle of the façade, and preceded by a courtyard of honour. To the right, and in front of the courtyard, is a small building which, originally, was to be an oven, then becomes a chapel, and finally a storage room. This building is a characteristic example of a rural building of the 16th century.
