What the French Ministry of Culture records

Les bâtiments du château forment un quadrilatère autour d'une vaste cour. L'essentiel de l'édifice remonte aux 16e et 17e siècles. Une partie du décor de cette dernière période est conservé : fresques de la chapelle, cheminées du corps de logis principal, beaux vestiges d'un ensemble de fresques formant un cycle dédié à la chasse.
