What the French Ministry of Culture records

L'apparence de place forte prise par le château laisse supposer qu'il a tenu sa place dans les querelles seigneuriales médiévales. Les murailles ont subi d'importantes restaurations dans le système de crénelage à la fin du 19e et au début du 20e siècle. Le château comprend une cour centrale fermée au sud et à l'ouest par deux corps de logis en équerre ; au nord et à l'est par une muraille de briques cantonnée aux angles de tours rondes. Hormis le bâtiment ouest, l'ensemble présente un système de défense féodal (chemin de ronde, créneaux, mâchicoulis).
