History
Castle originally formed of a main dwelling flanked by two pavilions, comprising two storeys and roof space. This building constructed of ashlar stone is enhanced by an English garden. It is visible from the park of the castle of Chantilly from the other side of the grand canal before the grand octagon. Fine example of Louis XVI architecture completed just before the Revolution and still featuring beautiful painted woodwork decoration on the ground floor.
