The château de la Villeneuve-Jacquelot, built between the 15th and 17th centuries in Quistinic, is listed as a historic monument for its remarkable architectural qualities.

The manor combines a rectangular layout with two towers: one semi-circular on the north façade, the other square at the rear, enhanced by mullioned windows and an ogival doorway.
