The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Ce logis, touchant presque le côté sud de l'église, a remplacé des constructions plus anciennes. Il y aurait, sous les caves, un souterrain-refuge. Il servit longtemps de presbytère. La balustrade qui ornait le sommet de la façade et le fronton triangulaire, ont été démontés. Cette façade est longée par un grand perron en pierres de taille, bordé par une suite de balustres en pierre. Au centre du perron, un large escalier de pierre à double pente est également bordé de balustres. A l'extrémité sud, un escalier moins important conduit à un jardin à la française.

History
This dwelling, touching almost the south side of the church, replaced older constructions. There would be, beneath the cellars, a refuge underground passage. It long served as a presbytery. The balustrade which decorated the top of the facade and the triangular pediment were removed. This facade is bordered by a large stone perron, edged by a succession of stone balusters. At the centre of the perron, a broad stone staircase with double slope is also bordered by balusters. At the southern end, a less important staircase leads to a formal garden.
