The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Le château se compose d'un corps de bâtiment principal et de deux ailes formant, avec l'élément central, deux angles optus. Le plan ordonné et régulier permet de penser que l'ensemble du château date du 17e siècle. Certains éléments cependant sont plus anciens : la tour carrée qui flanque le château au nord-est doit dater du 13e siècle. L'aile sud-est porte encore la trace d'un mâchicoulis et daterait du 15e siècle. Intérieurement, il reste peu de chose de l'ancien décor. Le premier étage de la partie centrale est constitué d'une unique pièce aux vastes proportions qui garde encore quelques traces de fresques, un dallage de pierre, ainsi qu'un plafond à la française.

The château consists of a main building and two wings forming, with the central element, two obtuse angles. The ordered and regular plan suggests that the entire château dates from the 17th century. Certain elements however are older: the square tower which flanks the château to the north-east must date from the 13th century. The south-east wing still bears the trace of machicolations and would date from the 15th century. Internally, there remains little of the old decoration. The first floor of the central part consists of a single room with vast proportions which still retains some traces of frescoes, a stone pavement, as well as a French ceiling.
