The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Le château, qui se signale dans le site par une tour monumentale, se présente actuellement sous un aspect composite datant de la fin du 19e siècle, dû à la famille Manse qui l'acquit en 1843. L'orangerie est un bel exemple d'une architecture très soignée, tant dans ses élévations que dans son décor, datant de 1876.

History
The castle, which stands out in the site by a monumental tower, currently presents a composite aspect dating from the late 19th century, due to the Manse family which acquired it in 1843. The orangery is a fine example of very careful architecture, both in its elevations and in its decoration, dating from 1876.
