The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Le corps de logis, en moellons enduits avec chaînages et encadrements des baies en pierres, rectangulaire et à deux niveaux, est desservi par un escalier de bois à balustres, sur plan carré. Celui-ci a remplacé la vis d'origine dans une tour hexagonale hors-oeuvre. Au 18e siècle probablement, les baies ont été repercées, surtout sur la façade antérieure. Des ailes latérales plus basses encadrent l'édifice.

History
The main dwelling, in rubble stone with render and with stone dressings and framings of openings, rectangular and two storeys, is served by a wooden staircase with balusters, on a square plan. This replaced the original spiral stair in a hexagonal projecting tower. Probably in the 18th century, the openings were reopened, especially on the front façade. Lower lateral wings frame the building.
