What the French Ministry of Culture records

Edifice en partie de l'époque Louis XII, mais dont l'ensemble date de la Renaissance. Certaines parties, comme la tour d'escalier polygonale ou des souches de cheminées, conservent encore des éléments gothiques. Autrefois protégé par des ouvrages de défense assez importants, il ne se compose plus que d'un corps de logis flanqué de deux tours et d'une tourelle d'escalier.
