What the French Ministry of Culture records

Demeure fortifiée en granit, construite à la limite des 16e et 17e siècles, se composant de deux pavillons saillants aux deux angles opposés, et d'une tourelle d'angle en surplomb. Cinq cheminées d'époque sont encore en place, mais trois ont été chemisées au 19e siècle dans des coffrages. Le logis est complété par des bâtiments de ferme et des dépendances, dissociés du logis, mais formant avec lui une cour rectangulaire fermée. Pendant la révolution, ce manoir fut un lieu de rendez-vous pour la chouannerie.
