History
The manor consists of a rectangular building whose eastern part is flanked by two bartizans. The western part is flanked for its part by a tower. The manor is connected to the chapel by a retaining wall, an old curtain wall levelled at plateau level. The latter is rectangular and its buttresses are topped by crocketed pinnacles.
