The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Ancienne ferme monastique offrant la rare particularité en Picardie de conserver un bâtiment d'habitation médiéval. Edifice sans doute construit dans la seconde moitié du 13e siècle pour des frères convers. Le bâtiment a conservé sa voûte d'arêtes médiévales reposant sur des colonnes monolithes. Les voûtes et colonnes du premier étage ont été perdues vers 1825. Vers 1770, construction d'un logis en moellons et pierres de taille destiné à l'abbé commanditaire, dénaturé par un incendie vers 1900. Le bâtiment médiéval conserve également des vestiges de décor peint Renaissance.

Former monastic farm offering the rare particularity in Picardy of preserving a medieval residential building. Building probably constructed in the second half of the 13th century for lay brothers. The building has retained its medieval groin vaults resting on monolithic columns. The vaults and columns of the first floor were lost around 1825. Around 1770, construction of a main dwelling in rubble stone and ashlar intended for the commendatory abbot, disfigured by a fire around 1900. The medieval building also preserves vestiges of Renaissance painted decoration.
