The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Demeure édifiée à la fin du 17e siècle. Le château se compose d'un corps de logis cantonné de pavillons. Le décor de l'édifice est simple, conformément aux règles architecturales de la fin du 17e siècle. La porte d'entrée est entourée de deux pilastres de faible saillie. Ces pilastres soutiennent un entablement dorique surmonté, à l'origine, d'un fronton circulaire. Les pavillons disposent chacun de deux lucarnes à fronton triangulaire. Le vestibule a conservé son décor fait d'arcades en plein cintre, rythmées de pilastres cannelés à chapiteaux corinthiens. Commun sud daté de 1825. Pigeonnier de plan carré sur arcades. De l'ancien jardin qui s'étendait à l'est, subsiste un bassin circulaire. Le ruisseau est enjambé par deux ponts en brique.

History
Dwelling built at the end of the 17th century. The château consists of a main dwelling flanked by pavilions. The decoration of the building is simple, in accordance with the architectural rules of the end of the 17th century. The entrance door is surrounded by two pilasters of slight projection. These pilasters support a Doric entablature surmounted, originally, by a circular pediment. The pavilions each have two dormers with triangular pediments. The vestibule has retained its decoration made of round-arch arcades, rhythmed with fluted pilasters with Corinthian capitals. South outbuilding dated 1825. Dovecote of square plan on arcades. Of the old garden which extended to the east, a circular basin remains. The stream is spanned by two brick bridges.
