The building dates from 1897. A complete renovation was carried out in 1964 and only the main façade was spared.

The façade dressed with rustication features a slight central avant-corps ornamented with three Corinthian columns and surmounted by an arched pediment and a square dome. A moulded window opens on each side. Style typical of the 19th century, highly ornamented and composite.
