The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'édifice se situe à l'intérieur du vieux bourg médiéval et date vraisemblablement du 15ème ou début du 16ème siècle. Bâti selon un plan en U, il est implanté autour d'une cour pavée. Il fut l'objet d'importantes transformations vers la fin du 16ème siècle ou au début du 17ème, notamment avec la construction d'une tour d'escalier en fond de cour. Au 18ème siècle, des aménagements intérieurs ont été réalisés. Les façades sur cour et arrière ont conservé leurs percements anciens. A l'intérieur, plusieurs cheminées de la fin du Moyen-Age subsistent ainsi que l'escalier d'une typologie rare dans la région.

The building is located within the old medieval town and probably dates from the 15th or early 16th century. Built according to a U-shaped plan, it is laid out around a paved courtyard. It underwent substantial transformations towards the end of the 16th century or at the beginning of the 17th, notably with the construction of a staircase tower at the back of the courtyard. In the 18th century, internal modifications were carried out. The facades facing the courtyard and the rear have retained their original openings. Inside, several fireplaces from the end of the Middle Ages remain as well as a staircase of a rare typology in the region.
