The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Première mention d'une maison forte en 1385. Transformations et aménagements au 18e siècle. C'est une plate-forme de plan carré, entourée d'épaisses courtines en pierre percées d'archères-canonnières. Des bâtiments s'adossent contre le mur sud-est, non loin d'une source qui alimentait les fossés puis un lavoir.

First mention of a fortified house in 1385. Transformations and arrangements in the 18th century. It is a square-plan platform, surrounded by thick stone curtains pierced by arrow-cannon loops. Buildings lean against the south-east wall, not far from a spring which fed the moats and then a wash-house.
