The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Manoir reconstruit au 17e siècle à l'emplacement de bâtiments du 15e bâtis en brique et pierre, dont certains éléments subsistent dans les façades de l'aile Est. L'édifice comprend un corps de logis principal, accompagné de deux ailes en retour d'équerre, l'aile Est étant elle-même accompagnée d'un bâtiment qui lui est perpendiculaire et qui appartient à la gentilhommière du 15e siècle. Dans l'aile Est également, se trouve la chapelle qui a conservé son plafond peint daté de 1636, divisé en compartiments tous décorés différemment. Près de la chapelle, l'escalier du 17e siècle présente une rampe à balustres sculptés.

Manor rebuilt in the 17th century on the site of buildings of the 15th century built in brick and stone, some elements of which remain in the façades of the East wing. The building comprises a main dwelling body, accompanied by two wings at right angles, the East wing being itself accompanied by a building perpendicular to it which belongs to the 15th-century manor house. In the East wing also is found the chapel which has preserved its painted ceiling dated 1636, divided into compartments all decorated differently. Near the chapel, the 17th-century staircase has a balustrade with sculptured balusters.
