What the French Ministry of Culture records

Dans l'ancien château du 15e siècle, dont il subsiste deux tours d'enceinte, naquit en 1687 Antoine d'Aydie qui, familier de la duchesse du Maine, ourdit un complot avec l'ambassadeur d'Espagne pour faire emprisonner Philippe d'Orléans et le remplacer par Philippe V d'Espagne. Le complot fut découvert mais Antoine d'Aydie eut le temps de gagner l'Espagne où, en reconnaissance, Philippe V le nomma vice-roi de Castille. Amnistié, il revint vers 1730 et construisit le château actuel.
