Étrepy Castle, erected in the early 17th century, preserves the traces of a medieval fortress in its broad moats. Its architecture bears the marks of 18th-century transformations, when it was converted into a pleasure residence with a classical portico featuring pilasters and plaster decorations. Early 20th-century restoration work reinstated the stone dormers and the grand salon with its stucco ornaments.
