The building consists of a rectangular pavilion, flanked to the north by two round towers which occupy the angles. On the south face, a spiral staircase occupies a polygonal turret placed at the centre. The roofing is very high, covered with small tiles. The roofing of the main building is a pavilion roof, roof structure with independent chevrons, hips and multiple rafters. The staircase tower opens by an ornate door with an ogival tympanum on which are seen, erased, the arms of the builder.
