Rebuilt between 1876 and 1879 by the architect J. Baumier of Caen for Emile-Claudius Baraguay-Fouquet, this eclectic-style château stands on older foundations, including a watchtower now absorbed into its north wing. The estate forms a coherent whole, with its access drive, chapel, hunting pavilion and outbuildings all designed as part of the same project, reflecting the social rise of a nineteenth-century industrialist. The grounds are open to visitors on certain weekend afternoons, while the interior is kept for private functions such as weddings.
