Historique
Première mention du logis seigneurial en 1512. Maison noble probablement construite vers 1490.

Le manoir est une construction en tuffeau, de plan en équerre avec une courte aile en retour sur le corps principal. Il est doté d'une tour d'escalier en vis hors oeuvre et deux tourelles sur contrefort flanquant le pignon du logis. Des bâtiments agricoles délimitent la cour seigneuriale. La cour est entourée d'un mur de clôture surmonté d'une grille datant de la seconde moitié du 19e siècle.

History
First mention of the seigneurial dwelling in 1512. Noble house probably built around 1490. The dwelling underwent various modifications from the Renaissance onwards, then around 1770 (openings, corridor) and in the 19th century. The manor is a tuffeau construction, with an L-shaped plan with a short return wing on the main body. It is equipped with a spiral staircase tower projecting from the structure and two turrets on buttresses flanking the gable of the dwelling. Agricultural buildings delimit the seigneurial courtyard. The courtyard is surrounded by a fence wall topped with ironwork dating from the second half of the 19th century.
