History
A former medieval fief, the château, transformed in the 18th century, underwent a profound restructuring around the middle of the 19th century. The main dwelling was then enhanced with a ground-floor gallery and a neo-Gothic chapel. The château presents decorative elements of quality: fireplaces, parquet floors, wood panelling, etc. Likewise, the chapel contains stained glass windows, mural paintings as well as pieces of furniture of great interest.
