In 1821, Antoine Joseph Secrétan retired to Grusse where he had his main dwelling built, and died there in 1837. The neo-classical main dwelling is set against the slope. A vaulted base with groined vaults makes up the level difference of the main dwelling's courtyard. Inside, an Italian vestibule. The various functions of the rooms are well characterised. A wing of outbuildings extends the main dwelling, the other being bordered by the mill channel. On the slope overlooking the main dwelling is found the monument of the tomb, presenting an obelisk on a pedestal and bearing military and funerary ornaments.
