Arrentières Castle, established in the 13th century, reflects multiple building periods. Its medieval structures, reworked in the late Middle Ages, were supplemented by 18th-century modifications. The complex features a moat, walls, and towers, including a dovecote tower, arranged around a central courtyard. The residence and eastern tower preserve underground chambers running along the fortifications on the southern side.
