What the French Ministry of Culture records

Cellier du 13e siècle qui dépendait de l'ancienne chartreuse de Meyrat. Le bâtiment principal présente deux tours carrées imbriquées, à trois niveaux. Au premier niveau se trouve une cave voûtée. A l'étage se trouvait un grand couloir qui desservait des pièces aménagées au 16e siècle et au bout duquel se trouve encore la chapelle. En 1560, adjonction d'étage et aménagements. Le plancher suspendu du cellier voûté est très rare. Un incendie a fait disparaître toute la partie 19e siècle et a ravagé l'étage dont seules subsistent les structures.
