What the French Ministry of Culture records

Château reconstruit au milieu du 15e siècle (architecture empreinte d'influence flamande) pour Antoine de Castelnau, chambellan de Louis XI, sur le site d'un castelnau médiéval. A l'est, corps de logis du 15e siècle ; au sud, une aile en retour d'équerre de la fin du Moyen Age réaménagée au 19e siècle ; à l'ouest, un châtelet d'entrée, ouvrage défensif rhabillé au 19e siècle ; au nord, la construction démolie a laissé place à un fossé en eau, dont le tracé courbe épouse le contour d'une butte récemment arasée (motte féodale?).
