Historique
Ce château se déploie sur deux ailes perpendiculaires dont la plus ancienne est adossée à la colline. Cette façade fut ouverte, à la Renaissance, par de larges fenêtres reprises au 19e siècle. L'aile 18e est occupée par toute une série de pièces en enfilade, renfermant des boiseries de la même époque (lambris, portes, décors de stuc de style rocaille, cheminées de marbre).

History
This castle unfolds over two perpendicular wings of which the oldest is set against the hillside. This facade was opened, at the Renaissance, by large windows taken up again in the 19th century. The 18th-century wing is occupied by a whole series of enfilade rooms, containing woodwork of the same period (wainscoting, doors, rocaille-style stucco decoration, marble fireplaces).
