The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Le manoir et ses dépendances s'organisent autour d'une cour carrée. La demeure, du 16e siècle (tour d'escalier polygonale) , a été remodelée aux 18e et 19e siècles. Elle est prolongée au nord par un jardin clos, sans doute l'ancien potager. A l'est du bief s'étendent le potager actuel, clos de murs, et le parc créé vers le milieu du 19e siècle.

History
The manor and its outbuildings are organized around a square courtyard. The dwelling, from the 16th century (polygonal stair tower), was remodeled in the 18th and 19th centuries. It is extended to the north by a enclosed garden, doubtless the former vegetable garden. To the east of the mill stream extend the present vegetable garden, enclosed by walls, and the park created around the middle of the 19th century.
