The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
La construction peut se situer au 15e siècle, mais les premiers propriétaires connus remontent au 14e. L'édifice d'origine a été remanié aux 16e et 19e siècle. Il se compose de deux bâtiments juxtaposés : le logis et une aile de communs. Le logis, bâtiment rectangulaire à un étage, a conservé les traces d'un aménagement Renaissance lisibles dans les ouvertures. Il est encadré, côté parc, par deux tours cylindriques comportant des percements des 15e et 16e siècles ainsi que des archères canonnières. L'aile des communs, plus basse, présente également des détails de l'architecture médiévale (fenêtres à meneau, porte moulurée). L'intérieur a conservé quelques cheminées médiévales.

History
The construction may be situated in the 15th century, but the first known owners go back to the 14th. The original building was altered in the 16th and 19th centuries. It comprises two juxtaposed buildings: the main dwelling and a wing of outbuildings. The main dwelling, a rectangular building with one storey, has retained traces of Renaissance arrangement legible in the openings. It is framed, on the garden side, by two cylindrical towers with openings of the 15th and 16th centuries as well as gun loops. The outbuildings wing, lower, also presents details of medieval architecture (mullioned windows, moulded door). The interior has retained some medieval fireplaces.
