What the French Ministry of Culture records

Le corps de bâtiment est d'origine médiévale. Il est flanqué de deux tours à bossages conservées sur la façade postérieure du corps de logis principal. A la fin du 16e ou au début du 17e siècle, ajout d'un corps de galerie à arcades et bossages troués un sur deux. Ce corps de galerie est flanqué de tours carrées couvertes en pavillon. Dans la seconde moitié du 18e siècle, construction d'ailes parallèles dans l'alignement des tours carrées, en commençant à l'est par celle qui contient la chapelle. L'aile symétrique a été ajoutée, puis deux ailes en retour d'équerre, entourant la cour d'honneur. L'ensemble, complété par un vaste corps de ferme s'articulant autour de deux cours quadrangulaires, est disposé dans un parc paysager.
