Historique
La date de 1755, inscrite en fers d'ancrage sur la façade laisse supposer que le château de Busménard fut construit pour François Danzel, chevalier, brigadier des chevau-légers de la garde du roi, alors seigneur du lieu qui posséda le domaine de 1739 à 1770. Château de proportions harmonieuses qui se compose d'un corps de logis flanqué de deux ailes en retour d'équerre assez peu saillantes. Construction en briques et pierres.

A château of harmonious proportions which comprises a main dwelling flanked by two wings at right angles of modest projection. Construction in brick and stone.
